Purpose
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that investigation medication (Bowklean) is not less effective than the active comparator (Klean-Prep with Dulcolax), with regards to the overall quality of bowel preparation in subjects undergoing colonoscopy. An additional objective of this study is to collect subject's response to the acceptability and tolerability about bowel preparation and safety information.
After bowel preparation, independent evaluator who is blinded to subject's treatment will evaluate the overall colon cleansing based on Aronchick and Ottawa scale. A total of 600 eligible subjects scheduled to a colonoscopy will be randomly assigned with equal allocation to 1 of 2 treatment groups: "Bowklean" or "Klean-Prep" with Dulcolax. Each subject's participation is expected to be maximally 4 weeks in study duration (up to 3-week screening period followed by one week post colonoscopy).

| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Single Blind (Outcomes Assessor) Primary Purpose: Treatment |
- The percentage of subjects that achieve excellent or good cleansing (success rate) in the Aronchick Scale. [ Time Frame: six months ]
- Proportion of successes (excellent, good, or fair) by individual colon segment (ascending, transverse, descending), which are assessed with the Ottawa scale. [ Time Frame: six months ]
