Hi there and thanks for posting
I am sorry it has taken a while for us to get back to you and hope your bowels are emptying now.
It can take on occasion a few hours for the bowel prep to start working in some people. I can appreciate the worry this can cause but it is important to continue to carry on with taking the sachets as directed.
I hope all goes well for you but do get back in touch if needed.
The nurses and helpline are here Mon-Fri 9-5 on 0808 800 4040 if you prefer to give us a call.
Take care
Naomi
Plenvu can take a little while to kick in. I’d stick to the instructions you were given and check with your endoscopy team before changing the timing of the second dose.
