Summary

This study tests whether a 'thirst relief kit' containing a lemon popsicle can reduce thirst intensity in patients who have undergone bowel preparation for a colonoscopy. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the popsicle or a placebo (a small amount of distilled water). The goal is to see if the popsicle improves thirst, dry mouth, and overall satisfaction during the hospital preparation period.
