Brief Summary
It is hypothesized that PEG 2L with citrate and simeticone plus bisacodyl will have similar bowel cleansing efficacy versus PEG 2L with ascorbate. Safety, tolerability, acceptance and compliance of the two reduced volume PEG-based bowel preparation will be also compared.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Evaluation of the quality of bowel preparation by BBPS
BBPS is an established rating scale to evaluate the quality of bowel preparation. A score greater than 6 is considered as success. The rate of success will be compared between the two groups.

Secondary Outcomes (5)
Difference in mucosal visibility between the two groups
20 minutes
Number of patients with adverse events
24 hours
Difference in tolerability between the two groups
