new bowel prep called Prepopik (PREP-oh-pik)

November 2012

You'll see a new bowel prep called Prepopik (PREP-oh-pik).

It's new in the U.S...but it's the top-selling bowel prep in Canada.

Some patients prefer it to PEG bowel preps (GoLytely, etc) because of its smaller volume. It comes as two packets...and each one is mixed with only 5 ounces of water.
