Polyethylene glycol, the active ingredient in Moviprep, is an osmotic laxative presented as an oral solution for oral use. It is used to cleanse the bowel before colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy in adult patients. GNH USA supplies Moviprep as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Moviprep is an osmotic laxative indicated for bowel cleansing procedures. - Colonoscopy preparation: provides thorough colon cleansing to enable clear endoscopic visualization. - Sigmoidoscopy preparation: clears the distal colon and rectum for accurate examination. - Diagnostic imaging preparation: cleanses the bowel before procedures such as barium enema to improve image quality.

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

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild to moderate feeling of sickness. - Abdominal discomfort: cramping or bloating. - Diarrhea: frequent loose stools. - Electrolyte imbalance: mild changes in sodium or potassium levels. - Thirst: increased sensation of needing fluids. - Headache: transient mild headache.
