Just drank Readi-Cat 2 Banana Susp 450ml for my CT scan. What an experience!
I've just had my first CT scan and was told to drink the Readi-Cat 2 Banana Susp 450ml before the procedure. It's a special liquid made of barium sulfate that helps doctors see the inside of my stomach and intestines more clearly. I must admit, the taste was not the best, but I got through it. The radiologist warned me about potential side effects and provided some important information. Although rare, the medication can cause serious allergic reactions. I hope I don't experience any severe constipation or stomach pain. In case something unexpected happens, I know I have the contact details of my doctor and the FDA hotline for reporting side effects. I'm curious about how others handled drinking it and if they had any adverse effects. Stay healthy, everyone!

I had to drink this stuff for my colonoscopy. It was awful, but it got the job done. I didn't have any side effects, thankfully.
Did anyone else get weird side effects? I had some weird redness on my skin but it cleared up. I’m not sure if it was the medicine or just coincidence.
You know, I had the radiologist mix it with some clear soda, that cut the awful taste a bit, but still a bit of a shame. I didn't have any side effects. I had the exact scan because of a stomach pain and I will talk to my doctor if the same pain continues, as it could be an indication of a severe bowel problem.
If anyone has tips for getting through the drink without gagging, I'm all ears. I've got a scan coming up and I'm dreading it.
I was really worried about the side effects. I'm allergic to a lot of things, so I was on high alert. But everything went smoothly, thank goodness.
Ugh, the taste is the worst part. It's like drinking chalk mixed with banana flavor. I had some stomach cramps, but they went away after a while.
