Is It Good To Have Ducolax And Drink Gatorade Before Procedure?

My husband has taken the 4 ducolax and drank gatorade with the prescribed MiraLax. It is 11:30 PM, the procedure is tomorrow morning.... Hi last bowel movement was just now and the water was the color of burnt orange. He feels fine, no dizziness, cramping, no other symptoms of intestinal bleeding?
