Glycerin rectal suppository is a rectal suppository used for short-term relief of constipation when passing stools becomes difficult or uncomfortable. It is especially helpful when quick relief is needed or when oral laxatives are not suitable. By acting locally in the rectum, it helps make bowel movements easier without being absorbed into the body.
This medicine works by softening the stool and gently stimulating the rectum, which triggers a natural urge to pass stools. It usually starts working within a short time after insertion. Because of this quick local action, it is commonly used for occasional constipation rather than long-term bowel problems.
Glycerin rectal suppository should be used exactly as advised and only for occasional use. Frequent or prolonged use can lead to diarrhoea or make the bowels dependent on laxatives. If constipation keeps coming back, it is important to look for the underlying cause rather than relying on regular suppository use.
To support regular bowel habits, drink plenty of fluids, eat fibre-rich foods, and stay physically active. If you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent constipation, or no relief after using Glycerin rectal suppository, you should stop using it and consult your doctor for further evaluation.
