Few allergic reactions from this product have been reported; these include urticaria, angioedema, and anaphylaxis.

متن کاملDoes Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) Plus Ascorbic Acid Induce More Mucosal Injuries than Split-Dose 4-L PEG during Bowel Preparation?
BACKGROUND/AIMS The aims of this study were to compare the bowel-cleansing efficacy, patient affinity for the preparation solution, and mucosal injury between a split dose of polyethylene glycol (SD-PEG) and low-volume PEG plus ascorbic acid (LV-PEG+Asc) in outpatient scheduled colonoscopies. METHODS Of the 319 patients, 160 were enrolled for SDPEG, and 159 for LV-PEG+Asc. The bowel-cleansing...

متن کاملPolyethylene glycol (PEG)-induced mouse model of choroidal neovascularization.
In this study, we describe a new method for inducing choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in C57BL/6 mice, an animal model of wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). AMD is a disease that causes central blindness in humans. We injected PEG-8 subretinally in different doses (0.125-2 mg) to induce CNV. After PEG-8 injection, we examined CNV at several time points (days 3-42). We also used Weste...
