FDA Warns about Acute Kidney Injury with Popular Prescribed Colon Cleanse


The Food and Drug Administration has released a late, end of the year warning to all patients who are looking to undergo a common colonoscopy procedure—avoid using colon cleanse drugs that contain oral sodium phosphate (OSP) which are commonly prescribed prior to the treatment to help cleanse the area so the doctor can more easily examine the colon.
The FDA, however is warning that a number of people may be risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) when using popular prescribed colon cleansing drugs that contain OSP in them. Furthermore, the FDA will be mandating a new labeling for all of these drugs containing OSP in them for 2009, to better warn patients of the associated risks.

Safe, Natural Alternatives like Colopril Colon Cleanse Achieve the Same Results
Instead of exposing yourself to unnecessary risks to your health by using a prescribed colon cleanse product that can cause injury to your kidneys, use an all-natural and equally as effective colon cleanse like Colopril instead. It gently will help to eliminate all of the excess waste and associated toxins from your colon. But it will not cause acute kidney injury or any other adverse side effects.
