FleetLaxatives, Liquid Glycerin Suppositories for Adult Constipation Relief, 7.5 mL Bottles, 4 Count, 3 Pack

If you're reading reviews for these suppositories, then you must be in trouble - and I'm so sorry! The good news is that these little gems really do work! There is nothing as distressing as having the urgent need to go, but you can't because everything feels all hard and backed up. The passing of the fecal matter, when it finally happens, is super stressful and extremely painful. I had just such a situation and have treated it with a multifaceted approach: 1) Make yourself drink water regularly. Set an alarm if you have to, but you must stay hydrated! 2) Eat plenty of fibrous vegetables to add bulk. I've taken fiber supplements, since I don't eat that much anymore, 3) Stool Softeners are super helpful - my doctor recommended Colace, and 4) If you get jammed up, try these easy to use glycerine suppositories. They're tiny! Just pull the cap off the stem, insert according to the package directions, squeeze the bulb to insert the glycerine, pull it out and discard the little bulb with stem, then you wait. Stick close to the bathroom, because this can work as fast as just a few minutes. Try to hold it as long as you can so that water can be drawn into the colon. The next thing you know, you are going to feel so much better! Consider having some Witch Hazel pads handy if there is too much discomfort afterwards - they can provide tremendous relief for raw and irritated areas. These things come in a package of four for around $5 or thereabouts. Considering the alternative - a trip to the Emergency Room - I'd say that these are an excellent value for the fast relief that they provide. Definitely a must-have for the home nedicine kit!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I chose Fleet because I've used the brand for years. When my parent had a problem defecating I went to the pharmacy to search for the best item for the situation. I hadn't seen one of these little enemas before but I trust the company. I had mother lie on her side with one leg raised over the other. The product went in easily and about 4 minutes later the problem fecal matter discharged. She said it wasn't painful at all.

All good

Nice

Didnt help.me much

Omg, totally saved me on a trip, works like full size ones but will go in carry on luggage! Amazing save!

Easy to use, small, great value I just wish they didn’t cost so much but they are… less than a rx to help you poo 💩 every time

This worked right away for me!
