    Plus it's unclear if the OP wants a "detox" or a clean out. ..

    She never was very clear, was she. And she never came back!

    Lately it seems if new posters don't like the replies they receive they don't bother coming back... :confused:

    If you're looking for a "clean out" get one of those powders from your pharmacy they give to colonoscopy patients before the big day.....
    It's not a pleasant experience, but you'll be completely emptied out. Just make sure not to venture far from the toilet for 24 hours.
    Other than that, I got nothing.

    Um, no, don't do that. Sorry. They aren't even available without a prescription/Drs recommendation in most cases, and improper use of them can seriously mess up a person's electrolytes. That's a bad scene.
    Even properly used they have a risk of dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.

    Eh, I think the hilariously-named "Go Lightly" is prescription only, but when my husband had his scope, they just had him take Miralax, which is out in the general pharmacy in the poop-aid aisle.

    Ahhh, things must be a little different in Canada then, or at least in my province. Only Miralax is non Rx around here, it's just in the constipation aisle. All the other colon preps, even Mag Citrate are Rx. Or they were back a couple years ago when I still worked as a pharm technician.

    There's a few over the counter preps you can get here in Australia. One of the common ones is called "picolax". Definitely no script needed. This is what they recommend for folks to prepare and empty before a colonoscopy.
