It's generally advised to avoid taking Vitamins and Supplements, including vitamin D and calcium, in the days leading up to a colonoscopy. These substances can potentially interfere with the effectiveness of the cleansing process and the accuracy of the procedure. Always consult your healthcare provider for specific instructions tailored to your situation.
