colonocopy prep with magnesium citrate

Hi I have many different heart arrhythmias and I take Inderal la 60 , my heart rate is most of the time in the 50's
I am having a Colonoscopy and my Dr. wants me to do Magnesium-Dulcolax prep .
I feel that it would be dangerous to take it since that would probably increase  my slow heart  rate.
What is a safe prep for  people with heart condition like that?
Thank You
