Sigmoidoscopy preparation: cleanses the distal colon to facilitate safe sigmoidoscopic examination. Other endoscopic procedures: ensures adequate bowel cleansing before various diagnostic or therapeutic endoscopies.

Moviprep may cause several adverse reactions, ranging from mild to serious.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: feeling of sickness or urge to vomit. - Abdominal bloating: sensation of abdominal distension. - Abdominal pain or cramps: discomfort in the stomach area. - Vomiting: expulsion of stomach contents. - Thirst: increased desire for fluids. - Mild electrolyte disturbances: slight changes in sodium or potassium levels.
