Magnesium Citrate YUM :(

Just a question...I am scheduled for surgery tomorrow afternoon at 2:45. I have to drink a bottle of magnesium citrate sometime today. I was wondering if it would be too late to drink it about 8 or 9 pm tonight? :confused2: I am a night owl and will probably be up until 12 or 1 so I am not really worried about it keeping me up all night but it might. I doubt I will actually sleep much tonight anyway...

Any of you all that have already had to drink this, I would really appreciate your feedback. Thanks in advance

I would take it NOW. At least for me it took almost 4 hours to start to work and then I had multiple episodes over the next 4 hours. You will have enough tummy rumbles going to surgery make sure the MgCitrate is all the way through! Good luck

Oh ya, definately take it early because it will last for several hours and you don't want to go to sleep and have an accident on yourself while you're asleep. It hits you fast and you might barely make it to the toilet. It's gross...Good luck with that!
