This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.

Summary

This study looks at how GLP-1 and GIP agonists (medications used for diabetes and weight loss) affect bowel preparation quality in adults scheduled for a colonoscopy. Researchers want to see if these drugs increase the chance of poor bowel prep, and whether pausing the medication for one dose improves outcomes. About 132 participants will be randomly assigned to either hold or continue their medication before the procedure.
