Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of lactulose in bowel preparation in IBD patients. The main question it aims to answer is: Does lactulose have better efficacy, safety and tolerability than 3L-PEG? Participants will be divided into PEG group or Lactulose group at a 1:1 ratio by a random number method. Each patient will get a leaflet provided by hospital introducing bowel preparation methods and diet restriction before bowel preparation. They will have bowel preparation with different drugs according to group. The grade of bowel cleansing will be assessed through the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS). The tolerability, satisfaction and safety of the two bowel preparation methods will be assessed through the patients self-administered questionnaires.
Interventions
Patients will take lactulose for bowel preparation.
Patients will take 3L-polyethylene glycol for bowel preparation.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| effective preparation rate | 5 minutes before the colonoscopy ends | Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) \>= 6 with a partial score \>= 2 in each colon segment |
| incidence of adverse events | 2 hours after having bowel preparation | incidence of adverse events in each group |
| taste score evaluated by patients | 2 hours after having bowel preparation | Five-point scale is used to evaluate taste (very bad, bad, moderate, good, very good) |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
