What is prescribed before a lower colonoscopy and upper endoscopy to flush your system out before the procedures? i'm due to have both very soon......

You must: speak to the doctor or the staff , every one have their own way of bowel prep, if you are not adequately prepared the procedure will be incomplete or will be cancelled. Staff will have written instructions ,eager to give you to get it done right , rather than rescheduling it again. Don't worry you will be fine
