Lots of options: There are a lot of different regimens for doing a colonoscopy prep. It depends on your gastroenterologist what they prefer. Ultimate what they want is a clean prep, so you should not have any stool in your colon when they look. You will have a sense of whether your prep is complete when you look in the toilet bowl and you shouldn't see any solid material left.

Prep med and diet: There are several commercially available prescription bowel preps that your endoscopist can order prior to th exam. There is usually a modification of one's diet the day before the procedure. I prefer that the bowel prep results look like "mountain dew" for the best exam.
