There isn't any prep for an endoscopy.  Do you mean the prep that you drink prior to a colonoscopy?  If so, that prep liquid that you drink to clean you out is called Golytely.

You would want to check with your GI doctor. Ours doesn't give any special thing for the colonoscopy clean out. You use OTC laxatives and stool softeners.

Sweet sailing is right that there normally is no prepping meds for an endo. You would have to ask your doctor if you are having a colonoscopy as to what meds he prescribes.

For EDG I was limited to clear liquid at midnight and nothing at all for 6 hours before.

For colonoscopy it was a prescription called MoviPrep. salty....mixed it with lemonade crystal light.

My colonoscopy prep was all OTC stuff. Milk of Magnesia first. Then 2 jugs of Gatorade mixed with a bottle of Miralax.

Good luck with your procedure!

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
