ENEMA SUPPOSITORY 100 ML

How ENEMA SUPPOSITORY 100 ML Works

• Lactulose is a non-absorbable sugar. When given rectally, it draws water into the bowel by osmosis, softening the stool and increasing its bulk.
• The increased fluid and bulk in the rectum stimulate the natural urge to pass stool (peristalsis), making evacuation easier.
• Because it is delivered directly into the rectum, the effect is usually seen within minutes to a couple of hours, faster than oral lactulose.

Most side effects are mild and settle on their own. Tell your doctor if any effect is severe, persistent, or if you notice bleeding.

• Rectal discomfort or irritation
• Cramping or bloating
• Nausea
• Diarrhoea with excessive or frequent use

• As this medication is used as needed, a missed dose is not likely. Use the enema when needed for constipation relief as directed by your healthcare provider.

• Keep ENEMA SUPPOSITORY 100ML away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store ENEMA SUPPOSITORY 100ML at room temperature.

• Understand the Purpose: Enema suppositories like the 100 ML formulation are primarily used to relieve constipation or cleanse the bowel before a medical procedure. Ensure you understand why you're using it and follow your doctor's instructions.
• Using an enema without proper understanding can lead to discomfort or be ineffective. Consult your physician if you are unsure.
• Proper Insertion Technique: Lie on your side with your knees bent towards your chest. Gently insert the lubricated suppository tip into your rectum. Squeeze the bottle until the prescribed amount of liquid is dispensed. Maintain the position for a few minutes to prevent leakage.
• Proper technique maximizes effectiveness and minimizes discomfort. A small amount of petroleum jelly or lubricant can aid insertion.
• Timing is Key: Administer the enema at a time when you can comfortably stay near a toilet for evacuation. Typically, results occur within 1 to 5 minutes. Avoid using it right before leaving the house or going to bed unless directed by a doctor.
• Plan accordingly to avoid inconvenience and ensure timely evacuation.
• Stay Hydrated: Enemas can sometimes cause dehydration. Drink plenty of fluids, especially water and electrolyte-rich beverages, after using the enema to replenish lost fluids.
• Adequate hydration helps maintain proper bowel function and overall health.
• Potential Side Effects and Precautions: Be aware of potential side effects such as abdominal cramping, bloating, or rectal irritation. If you experience severe pain, bleeding, or other concerning symptoms, discontinue use and consult your doctor immediately. Enemas should not be used frequently or long-term without medical supervision.
• Long-term or frequent use can lead to dependency or other complications. Consult your healthcare provider if you need regular bowel assistance.
• Storage: Store the enema suppository at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat. Ensure it is out of reach of children.
• Proper storage maintains the efficacy of the medication and prevents accidental ingestion.

• There are no known food interactions with Enema Suppository 100ml. It is a rectal medication, and its absorption is not significantly affected by food intake. You can use it regardless of when you last ate.
