Description
Glycerine Suppository 12s (Child)
Overview
Glycerine Suppositories for Children (12s) are gentle and effective remedies used to relieve occasional constipation in children. Each suppository contains glycerol (glycerine), a mild laxative that works by softening stools and stimulating natural bowel movements.
These suppositories are designed for safe and fast relief, especially for children who find it difficult to pass stool due to dryness or hardness. The smooth texture and easy-to-insert shape ensure comfort during administration, helping restore regularity without causing discomfort or irritation.
How It Works
Glycerine acts locally in the rectum to draw water into the stool, softening it and lubricating the passage. This gentle action encourages the bowel muscles to contract naturally, promoting a comfortable and complete evacuation.
Unlike oral laxatives, glycerine suppositories work directly where needed, offering relief within 15 to 60 minutes after insertion.
