Suppository

For whom?

For people who struggle to swallow oral medicines – such as infants, the elderly, and post-operative patients – the rectal route often proves ideal. Suppositories are also effective for treating constipation and other intestinal issues.

How?

Suppositories have rounded ends so they slide easily into the anus. Once in, they dissolve steadily, releasing medicine, which is absorbed into the bloodstream through the intestinal walls.

And

Medicines administered anally are absorbed faster than oral pills, so if you’re a doctor in a hurry, start at the bottom.
