Everybody is different of course, but assuming it's for relief of constipation, 4 to 8 ounces of water retained for 2 to 5 minutes should do the trick. If not, repeat with slightly more solution.

What is the difference between a Bisacodyl enema and a saline enema?
A bisacodyl enema is a pre-packaged mini-enema that contains 1.25 oz of liquid and 10mg of bisacodyl. Bisacodyl is a stimulant laxative and acts by causing contractions of the colon muscles. The small volume allows the enema to be comfortably retained for the amount of time necessary for the bisacodyl to act inside the colon, usually within 15 minutes or so and is nice and cramp producing!!A pre packaged saline enema contains a mixture of water and sodium phosphate and is 4oz for the pre-packaged enemas (like Fleets)large volume enemas where a small amount of salt is mixed with warm water (a teaspoon per 1000ml) is far better than the nasty Fleet sodium phosphate enema. Better for you and more cleansing.

Polyps may not be easily visible on a barium enema x-ray. Barium enema is primarily used to detect abnormalities in the colon, such as tumors or inflammation. However, if a polyp is large enough or causing a visible irregularity in the colon, it may be visible on the x-ray. A colonoscopy is a more accurate method for detecting and diagnosing polyps.

Technically none. Your colon is multiple feet long, and generally contains fecal material. A large enough enema can empty that out partly or completely, but once you've eaten food and it's back in your digestive system, it will fill right back up.Practically speaking, a few pounds might disappear temporarily.
