[Effective bowel preparation before coloscopy - low-volume PEG in the divided dose regimen].

PEG and PEGA are similarly efficient in the bowel preparation before coloscopy provided they are used in a similar regimen. The best results are reached when the preparation is divided into 2 days. PEGA is better tolerated than PEG, regardless of the used regimen. The quality of bowel cleansing is affected by the length of preparation (optimally up to 12 hours) and the time elapsed from the preparation until examination (up to 8 hours).
