In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the safety, compliance, and efficacy of different bowel preparation methods prior to colonoscopy. Researchers will compare 4-L split-dose polyethylene glycol and the bisacodyl + docusate sodium regimen versus 2-L split-dose polyethylene glycol plus oral simethicone regimen versus the conventional method for bowel preparation before colonoscopy. Participants will undergo history-taking, clinical examination, laboratory investigations, and colonoscopy. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive 4-L split-dose polyethylene glycol and bisacodyl + docusate sodium, a 2-L split-dose polyethylene glycol regimen plus oral simethicone, or 2-L split-dose polyethylene glycol alone as a control. Colonoscopy will be done 24 hrs after the start of medication. Researchers will assess the quality of the bowel preparation using the Aronchick bo
