Description
Glycerine Suppositories for infants (1g) are used to relieve constipation. Glycerin, the active ingredient, acts as a mild laxative by drawing moisture into the rectum, which softens the stool and promotes bowel movements. These suppositories offer gentle relief for infants with constipation.
Dosage and Directions:
- Use as directed by your pediatrician.
- Insert one 1g suppository into the infant’s rectum, typically as needed.
- Ensure the infant is in a comfortable position, such as lying on their back with legs lifted.
- Wash your hands before and after use.
- Remove the wrapper before insertion and gently insert the suppository.
Possible Side Effects:
Common side effects may include mild rectal irritation or a slight burning sensation. Rarely, some infants may experience cramping or discomfort. If severe pain, persistent discomfort, or unusual symptoms occur, consult a healthcare provider immediately.
