KLEAN- PREP
Klean-Prep® is a modern specialist
product for the preparation of the colon prior to colonoscopy and X-ray
examinations.
Klean-Prep® is a balanced mixture of
polyethylene glycol 3350 (PEG 3350)
and electrolytes which, added to water, produces a clear, colourless,
iso-osmotic solution. It acts as a bowel cleansing agent and allows a
total cleansing in 4 to 6 hours.
Klean-Prep® can be taken at home and
thus reduces hospitalization and nursing time, it has a high cleansing
success rate (95%) and is very well tolerated.
Helsinn acquired world-wide rights to
Klean-Prep® excluding Canada from Helix Biopharma in
1990 and has then developed and licensed-out the product
to a number of partners in Europe, North America, Latin America, Africa, Middle and Far East.
Klean-Prep® is presently marketed under
the same brand name in more than 30 countries. In these markets,
Klean-Prep® has achieved excellent sales
performances and it is among the leaders in bowel cleansing preparations,
thanks to the top-quality characteristic of the product combined with
partnerships with companies well introduced in hospitals and diagnostic
centres.
Klean-Prep® is the only product of its
class which provides patients with a most useful and easy-to-use shaker
for the preparation and intake of the solution.
Klean-Prep® is available in the
following packs:
