Total Clean-out Preps

I've done a number of these. The most effective one starts with 4 Dulcolax (or the generic bisacodyl) pills, taken around 3:00 PM. These usually take, for me, about 2 ½ to 3 hours to work. At 5:30 PM, I do a 3 quart enema, heavy on the soap. When the noise from all of that settles down, I take a bottle of Magnesium Citrate. There is a second 3 quart enema around 8:00 PM or so, followed by 3 more bisacodyl pills at 9:00 PM.

Needless to say, the “fun” continues all night, so one should either be very fast to the toilet or have a stash of extra heavy diapers around.

@Sean When you take picoprep do you go for the whole thing and take the second bag after the first one or do you only take the first bag? That are in the packets?

Full 2 sachets because whet I take picoprep I need to clean n me out completely

Greetings everyone

I've been doing a top-down cleanout for years now. In the last year or so I've switched out few things.

1) I do a juice cleanse fast for a full 24 hrs prior to the cleanout - clear liquids only - cocktails are allowed 😃

2) I use an Epsom's salt purgative - 2 heaping tbl spoons in 10 oz of water - this next part is where I cheat a bit...

I swallow a 20fr urinary catheter (not a foley) then use a 10oz bulb syringe to inject the liquid, this way there is no foul taste from the Epsom's salt. Alternatively you can flavor it with lemon and drink it down quickly but it's really horrible to drink. This practice sounds difficult but is really easy once you do it a few times. My partner [Barb] and I typically start this Friday evening around 7pm. Then drink two 12 oz glasses of water. The purgative typically works in 45 min or so, you will have a very watery BM.

3) Enemas - we typically start off with a 3qt SSE - I use OHN's goats milk enema soap, I find it easy take with little cramping yet you get a good expel. We do this around 9 pm. At 10:30 or so it's a 3.5~4qt saline rinse. We usually stay up for a movie or something and hit the bed by 1am. Sometimes you may have an additional BM before morning but not often - for us anyway.

4) Saturday morning - Enemas til clear - again we start with 3qt SSE released immediately, then 3.5~4qt saline rinses - we often go for 3 rinses but usually the returns are clear after the 1st rinse of the morning.

Barb and I have been doing this or a variation of this for many years now.

Colonoscopy prep - I have used this many times for a c-scope prep - my doc always comments: Nice Prep. Please note - I'm not a doc or an RN or med tech of any kind - this prep works for me and is: In-My-Humble-Opinion. So if you desire a total cleanout this works. For some folks the hardest part will be the 24 hr juice fast before starting and then there's the Epsom's salt...

Other: I've been using large volume enemas for many years, I find it comfortable to take 4qts as long as I'm completely clear of all solids first, Barb is similar. For a lot of folks I'm sure 2.5~3qts will be more than adequate.

Using an NG or OG tube is useful in getting foul tasting things down.

Excuse me everyone but I thought there are some very simple outcomes those of us wish to achieve ? ? ! ! (Although the list could be expanded to fit all kinds of kinks.)

First these enemas or colonic irrigations, flushes. enemas and such, were designed to assist in promoting the well -being and functioning of our often mis-aligned digestive tract. an attempt to get our bodies more in tune with their natural functioning. As I read trough the many ideas, suggestions, and maybe some B S; I get the idea that some of us are on a bizarre lab project to see what things we can do to ourselves and live to talk about it. All types of additives, liquids, powders, oils, combining solutions, and the orders they should be added. Some make good combinations - eggs, milk, mollassas, various non toxic oils,: etc: or drugs designed especially, for the purpose at hand - MoM, Suppositories, multiple citrate solutions, in various strengths and volumes. Things we used to find in high school chemistry labs Then we go on to propose various time structures, and while we are at it, let's talk about haw many we can get delivered in a specified time or the order to be delivered, Keep reading and you can find suggestions on using mayonnaise, ketschup, mustard, yogurt, salad dressings - ranch, thousand islands, french, oil & vinegar, coffee ; coffee with grounds, hot coco with or with or how about marshmallows, Or how about plain marshmallows, marshmallows with choc. syrup or caramel and whip cream. For the veggie crowd Carrots, cherry or grape tomatoes, bananas, celery sticks with peanut butter, cauliflower, broccoli flouretts, The list could go on and on. Just trying to add a little brevity to the conversation. Nothing wrong with any of these as onf as they are consensual, clean, and with common sense. Now to cover my tracks and let you know how silly some of these are. I have tried more than half of these items on my husband.. and most are very fun. Things are about to get very busy this week and through the end of the year, not sure how often I'll be back on-line any time soon. (It's hunting season in the South you know. Happy Holidays to all

I don't like purges, better lots of big and tall enemas

...isn't every enema a type of rinse?🤔
