  1. 01HumanRandomized controlled trialEfficacy outcome

    In patients with chronic constipation, 3L PEG plus linaclotide was superior to 3L PEG on right-colon, transverse-colon, total BBPS and total OBPQS scores (P <0.05).

    In plain wordsIn patients with chronic constipation, adding linaclotide to 3L PEG gave better bowel preparation scores than 3L PEG alone.
