Resumo

Sodium picosulfate is a prodrug that must be converted to its active laxative form by colonic bacteria. Antibiotics that suppress colonic flora may reduce this activation and lead to poorer bowel cleansing before colonoscopy. Cefazolin is given parenterally, so the effect is likely smaller than with oral antibiotics, but labeling advises caution.
