CORECT SUPPOSITORY 7'S

How CORECT SUPPOSITORY 7'S Works

• CORECT Suppositories 7'S offer a targeted approach to relieving constipation by directly stimulating bowel movement. The active ingredient, Bisacodyl, works locally within the rectum to encourage evacuation. Upon insertion, the suppository dissolves, releasing Bisacodyl in close proximity to the bowel wall.
• Bisacodyl functions through two primary mechanisms. Firstly, it stimulates the sensory nerve endings in the rectal mucosa. This stimulation increases the propulsive contractions of the colon, essentially triggering the urge to defecate. Secondly, Bisacodyl promotes the accumulation of water in the intestines. It achieves this by inhibiting the absorption of water and electrolytes from the large intestine. The increased water content softens the stool, making it easier to pass and reducing discomfort during bowel movements.
• The combined effect of increased intestinal motility and softened stool results in predictable and reliable relief from constipation. Because the suppository acts locally, the onset of action is typically within 15 to 60 minutes. This rapid action makes CORECT Suppositories a suitable choice for individuals seeking prompt relief from occasional constipation. Furthermore, the localized action minimizes systemic absorption, reducing the likelihood of widespread side effects.
• Unlike oral laxatives that need to be digested and absorbed into the bloodstream before taking effect, CORECT suppositories act directly where they are needed. This direct action allows for a lower dose of Bisacodyl to be effective, further reducing the potential for side effects. However, it's crucial to use CORECT suppositories as directed and avoid prolonged or excessive use, as this can lead to dependence and other complications. Always consult a healthcare professional if constipation persists or worsens.

• If you miss a dose of CORECT Suppository, use it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not use a double dose to make up for the missed one.

• Keep CORECT SUPPOSITORY 1X7 away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store CORECT SUPPOSITORY 1X7 at room temperature.

• **Understand the Purpose:** CORECT suppositories are primarily used to relieve constipation. Make sure you understand the underlying cause of your constipation before using them. If constipation persists, consult your doctor to rule out any underlying medical conditions.
• **Proper Insertion Technique:** For adults, lie on your side with your knees bent towards your chest. Gently insert the suppository, pointed end first, well into the rectum. For children, follow your doctor's or pharmacist's instructions closely. Wash your hands thoroughly before and after insertion.
• **Timing Matters:** Use CORECT suppositories at a time when you can allow for a bowel movement shortly after insertion, typically within 15 minutes to an hour. Avoid using them right before going out or when immediate access to a toilet is unavailable.
• **Dosage and Frequency:** Always follow the recommended dosage provided by your doctor or the instructions on the product label. Avoid overuse, as frequent use of stimulant laxatives can lead to dependency and reduced bowel function over time. Typically, it's not for daily or prolonged usage unless directed by a physician.
• **Storage is Key:** Store CORECT suppositories in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. High temperatures can melt the suppository, making it difficult to use. Keep them out of reach of children and pets. Check the expiration date before use and discard if expired.
• **Hydration and Diet:** While CORECT can provide temporary relief, maintain adequate hydration by drinking plenty of water and incorporating fiber-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains into your diet. This supports healthy bowel function and helps prevent future constipation.
• **Potential Side Effects:** Be aware of potential side effects such as rectal irritation, discomfort, or a burning sensation. If you experience severe pain, bleeding, or other unusual symptoms, discontinue use and consult your doctor immediately. Mild cramping can occur.
• **Drug Interactions:** Inform your doctor or pharmacist about all other medications, supplements, or herbal remedies you are taking before using CORECT suppositories to avoid potential drug interactions. Certain medications can affect bowel function.
• **When to Seek Medical Advice:** If your constipation is accompanied by severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, or blood in your stool, seek immediate medical attention. These symptoms could indicate a more serious underlying condition.
• **Not a Long-Term Solution:** CORECT suppositories are intended for short-term relief of constipation. For long-term management, focus on lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, and hydration. Consult your doctor for a comprehensive approach to managing chronic constipation.

• CORECT SUPPOSITORY 7'S is generally administered rectally, so its interaction with food is minimal.
• However, if you experience any gastrointestinal discomfort or irritation after using the suppository, consider avoiding heavy meals or foods that are known to upset your stomach around the time of administration.
• Consult your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice, especially if you have underlying digestive issues.
