I used to work in a place with a pharmacy and everyone someone had to come in and get the liquid you're supposed to drink prior to a colonoscopy I always cringed a little in sympathy
It's called PegLec and it is very chalky in taste and colonoscopy is indeed very painful. It's like this scope with a camera, a flush and an instrument called punch biopsier going through your small butthole up into your large intestine.
I think it was called something else at the pharmacy I worked at, but either way that's the stuff. I always found it a bit odd that they give you like 1/16 of a jug's worth of liquid and such a huge jug haha.

I've never had a colonoscopy, though relatives of mine did. I've heard some people get sedated for it. I've had a cystoscopy so I can only imagine how unpleasant a colonoscopy might be
