I am having a colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy. Do I have to do anything to prepare for this procedure?

Yes. Please follow your physician’s instruction for this procedure. Please contact your physician’s office for a prescription or instructions.

My procedure is scheduled for the afternoon. Can I eat or drink anything the morning of the procedure?

You should not eat anything after midnight. You may have up to 1 cup of clear liquid 4 hours prior to your scheduled arrival time. Please consult your physician for additional instructions if you are scheduled for an afternoon appointment.
