Unfortunately didn't like at all. (5th colonoscopy). After the first dose only had one movement. Second dose I couldn't keep down after two hours. I had better luck with suprep (cold with crystal light and ice cube!s). The plenvu had mango flavoring and second dose was tropical flavoring. The dry mixture had to be shaken up for a long time to dissolve. Lots of nausia and wondering how long I was going to have movements because they were very speratic

Looks like its Suprep+Miralax.

I have no idea why doctors like Miralax so much. Suprep alone works well, nauseatic, sure but it ain't going to be any better with artificial flavors.
