Colace Adult Glycerin Suppositories 12 pack

Glycerin Suppositories are a type of over-the-counter medication used to treat occasional constipation.

• Glycerin suppositories work by drawing water into the stool, helping to soften it and ease its passage.
• Fast-Acting Relief: Glycerin suppositories typically work within 15 to 30 minutes.
• Gentle Option: They are a gentle way to relieve constipation, especially for people who may find straining difficult, such as pregnant women or those who have recently undergone surgery.
• Easy to Use: Suppositories are inserted rectally and don't require swallowing medication.
• Read and Follow Label Instructions Carefully: Ensure you understand the proper dosage and insertion method. It's typically recommended to use one suppository daily or as directed.
• Not for Everyone: Consult a doctor before using Glycerin Suppositories if you have certain medical conditions (bowel obstruction, rectal bleeding), are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are taking other medications.
• Not a Long-Term Solution: Glycerin suppositories are meant for occasional constipation relief and shouldn't be used regularly.
• Potential Side Effects: Although uncommon, burning, stinging, or irritation at the application site can occur. Leakage may also happen in some cases.
• Underlying Cause: Glycerin suppositories address the symptom (constipation) but not the underlying cause. If you experience frequent constipation, consult a doctor to identify the cause and recommend a suitable treatment plan.
• Fiber Supplements: Increasing fiber intake through fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can help regulate bowel movements in the long term.
