What are Glycerin Suppositories?

Glycerin Suppositories are a treatment designed for direct insertion into the rectum to alleviate occasional constipation. Commonly recognized as a laxative, these suppositories promote regular bowel movements, facilitating the elimination of accumulated stool and alleviating symptoms associated with constipation. Tailored for adults, this treatment is effective in addressing issues such as leakage and incontinence, making it a comprehensive solution for constipation.


How do Glycerin Suppositories work?

Glycerin Suppositories are formulated with glycerol as the primary active ingredient. When inserted into the rectum, these suppositories gradually release glycerol, a mild irritant that stimulates bowel muscles, inducing contractions. This increased pressure aids in moving stool, facilitating bowel emptying. Additionally, glycerol attracts water from the bowel to the dry or hardened stool, softening it and contributing to swift relief as the stool is expelled more easily.

As an efficient method for relieving constipation, Glycerin Suppositories are both safe and effective, providing relief from the pain and discomfort caused by dry and hardened stool.


Who would benefit from using Glycerin Suppositories?

Designed for adults aged 18 and above, Glycerin Suppositories are an ideal remedy for the treatment of constipation. Indications of constipation may include pain during bowel movements, dry and hardened stool, and reduced frequency of toilet visits.


When should you use Glycerin Suppositories?

Glycerin Suppositories are recommended for use when experiencing constipation. This condition, often resulting from slow waste movement through the digestive tract, can lead to discomfort during bowel movements. Common causes of constipation include lack of exercise, stress, sudden dietary changes, and insufficient water intake.

Best administered once in the morning, Glycerin Suppositories offer relief from constipation, providing an alternative to oral solutions and tablets. If you are concurrently using any other medication for constipation relief, it is crucial to read the information leaflet or consult with a medical professional beforehand.


Why use Glycerin Suppositories?

Glycerin Suppositories are beneficial for facilitating the passage of stool from the rectum. This easily insertable instrument helps lubricate and soften stool, reducing strain during bowel movements. Unlike tablets and oral solutions, this localized treatment specifically targets hardened stool, offering relief from constipation.
