A member asked:
Will taking domperidone before my sigmoidoscopy be okay? worried ^ gastric emptying will push stool into the sigmoid colon quicker (after enema)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be OK: In fact, the domperidone should theoretically help with your bowel prep for your sigmoidoscopy.
