Procedure Prep

Regardless of which procedure you are having performed, it is important to be fully prepared before you arrive for your appointment. Properly preparing for the procedure ensures that our physicians can provide you with the highest quality examination possible. An incomplete or poor prep can cause your procedure to be rescheduled. In the event of a medical emergency, please call 911.

Important: Magnesium Citrate Nationwide Recall - If you are having a colonoscopy procedure read more here before starting your prep.

Purchasing Your Prep Kit

Congratulations! You have made the smartest choice in digestive care by scheduling your colonoscopy with MNGI Digestive Health. Colorectal cancer is the second deadliest cancer in both men and women, but also the most treatable when found early. A colonoscopy is the most accurate test to detect colon cancer and polyps. It is also the only test where polyps can be removed, thus preventing colorectal cancer from developing. A colonoscopy can also help to identify other conditions that may be causing pain or discomfort.

Important Things to Note:

Before you place this order, please refer to your prep packet. It is important that you take only the preparation identified in your instructions. The suggested prep is based upon your medical history and selected specifically for you. Do not place this order if the recommended prep needs to be picked up from a pharmacy (i.e., some examples would be MoviPrep® or Nulytely®).
We do not expect Medicare, Medicaid, or TRICARE to pay or reimburse for MNGI's Colonoscopy Prep Kits and program beneficiaries will be responsible for the full cost of such kits.
If you order your prep kit online by 12PM CST (noon) Monday-Friday, your kit will be shipped by USPS on the same day. Otherwise, your kit will ship on the next business day. Please allow a minimum of 1 week to receive your kit. Prep kits cannot be returned.
If your procedure is within the next 14 business days, we recommend that you go to one of our endoscopy center locations between the hours of 8:00 am and 3:30 pm, to pick up your kit rather than having it shipped. (*Please note: prep kits are not available for pick-up at our Minnesota Endoscopy Center (MEC) location.)

For your convenience, we have provided written prep instructions (in a printable pdf format) for the Colonoscopy procedure. Translated prep instructions are also available on this page. You will notice there is more than one kind of prep for this procedure. Please check to make sure you are reading or printing the set of instructions that was prescribed for you. Any prep instructions specific to you and your procedure would have been mailed to you or uploaded to your Patient Portal account. If you have any questions about your prep, please call us at (612) 871-1145, and select option 3 for assistance.
