My GI Doctor is having me use the new SUTAB Prep. Has anyone used this yet? It is 12 tablets the night before and 12 tablets 2 hours before procedure.

I couldn't find much in the archives, hopefully someone will comment that has used this. My only issue would be taking more pills 2 hours before the procedure, myself, I would not do that out of fear of making a mess trying to get to the facility.

Good luck with your scope.

The 2nd dose 2 hrs before procedure does sound troubling. I have to think that means it works VERY fast which sounds stressful to me. Or it could be a good thing as I’m usually on the toilet for hours in my prep.

Will be interested to see how it goes! Please let us know if you use it!

My scope isn't until 12/1 but will let you know how the Prep goes.

What time is your scope?

I would never do a split dosage prep...there are other options if you're stressed to use that type of prep.

Im all in for the gallon preps...finished in one evening so sleep is at least attainable.

I do the gallon preps as a split dosage but honestly, I usually don't do the second half. Don't tell my doctors. Lol.

Your secret is safe, Sara!

Speak for yourself.....I am jealous she only has to do half the prep! If I figure out who Sara's doctor is, I'm ratting her out!! Hahahahah.

I thought it was better. 12 pills and 48 oz of water the night before. Then had to get up at 3 AM for 12 more pills and another 48 oz of water. I finished both without getting sick. Thought it was a lot less explosive (guess that is the best word to describe it once it started working). Hope it works well for you.
