Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female patients who are undergoing colonoscopy for a routinely accepted indication, including:

    • Evaluation of BE results
    • Endosonography
    • Blood in stool
    • Anemia of unknown etiology
    • Abdominal Pain
    • Polypectomy
    • Unknown diarrhea or constipation etiology
    • Inflammatory bowel disease
  • Between 6 and 16 years of age at screening.
  • Otherwise in good health, as determined by physical exam and medical history.
  • If female, and of child-bearing potential, is using an acceptable form of birth control (hormonal birth control, IUD, double-barrier method, depot contraceptive, sterilized, abstinent, or vasectomized spouse).
  • Negative urine pregnancy test at screening, if applicable
  • In the investigator's judgment, parent/guardian is mentally competent to provide informed consent to participate in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with known or suspected ileus, gastrointestinal obstruction, gastric retention, bowel perforation, toxic colitis, or toxic megacolon
  • Subjects impacted at screening
  • Subjects with impaired consciousness that predisposes them to pulmonary aspiration.
  • Subjects who are undergoing colonoscopy for foreign body removal and decompression
  • Subjects with known difficulties for swallowing tablets
  • Subjects with pre-existing electrolyte disturbances, such as dehydration, or those secondary to the use of diuretics.
  • Subjects who are taking drugs that may affect electrolyte levels with the exception of routine diuretics.
  • Subjects with known clinically significant electrolyte abnormalities such as hypernatremia, hyperphosphatemia, hypokalemia, or hypocalcemia
  • Subjects who are pregnant or lactating, or intending to become pregnant during the study.
  • Subjects of childbearing potential who refuse a pregnancy test.
  • Subjects who are allergic to any preparation components
  • Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, should not be included in the study for any reason, including inability to follow study procedures.
  • Subjects who have participated in an investigational clinical, surgical, drug, or device study within the past 30 days.
  • Any condition in parent/guardian associated with poor subject compliance (e.g., substance abuse); inability of parent/guardian to return for scheduled visits with their child.
