Child Suppository Rectal: Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Pictures, Warnings & Dosing

Uses

This product is used to relieve occasional constipation. Glycerin belongs to a class of drugs known as hyperosmotic laxatives. It works by drawing water into the intestines. This effect usually results in a bowel movement within 15 to 60 minutes.For adults, the normal frequency of bowel movements varies from once daily to 1 to 2 times weekly. For preschool-aged children, the normal frequency of bowel movements varies from once daily to once every other day. Constipation is best treated by drinking plenty of fluids, eating foods high in fiber, and exercising regularly.

How to use Child Suppository Suppository, Rectal

This product is for rectal use only. Read and follow all directions on the product package, or use as directed by your doctor. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist. If the suppository is too soft to insert, chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or run cold water over it before removing the foil wrapper.

Wash your hands before and after using this product. If the medication is wrapped in foil, remove the foil wrapper. If desired, the suppository may be moistened with lukewarm water. Do not use petroleum jelly or mineral oil. Doing so may cause the product to be less effective.

Lie on your left side with the right knee slightly bent. Using your finger, gently insert the suppository well up into the rectum, pointed end first. After insertion, stay in position for 15 to 20 minutes if possible until you feel a strong urge to have a bowel movement. This product does not need to melt completely to produce an effect. If you are helping a child use this product, have the child lie on their side with the lower leg straightened out and the upper leg bent toward the stomach. Using your finger, gently insert the suppository into the rectum, pointed end first. Hold the buttocks together for a few seconds. Then, have your child stay lying down for 15 to 20 minutes if possible to keep the suppository from coming out.

Do not use this product more than once daily unless otherwise directed by your doctor.

If this product is used too frequently, it may cause loss of normal bowel function and an inability to have a bowel movement without using the product (laxative dependence). If you notice symptoms of overuse, such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, decreased weight, or weakness, contact your doctor promptly.

Consult your doctor promptly if you do not have a bowel movement after using this product or if you think you may have a serious medical problem.

Child Constipation Education FAQ

Our FAQ section should help you find the answers you need to resolve their constipation problem now and ways to avoid more problems in the future by changing their diet.

General Questions

  • Q What is constipation?

    A

    A division of the National Institutes of Health defines constipation as having a bowel movement fewer than three times a week. Stools are usually hard, dry, small in size and difficult to eliminate. Children with constipation usually either have very large hard stools or hard pellet-like stools. Bowel movements are infrequent and often painful.

    The American Academy of Pediatrics outlines normal frequency of bowel movements for children. See table below.

  • Q What causes constipation?

    A

    Lots of things can cause constipation. Common causes include not getting enough fiber, fluids or insufficient exercise. In addition, with children, constipation is often caused by “holding it in” too long because they don’t want to stop playing to go to the bathroom. However, constipation can also result from a more serious medical condition. The first time your child experiences constipation, talk to your pediatrician for a complete diagnosis.

  • Q Is constipation normal?

    A

    Yes, completely. Constipation is a common problem for kids. Unfortunate, but true.

  • Q Should I panic if my child has constipation?

    A

    Not at all. Constipation is completely normal and a common problem for kids. Unfortunate, but true.

  • Q When should I begin to worry?

    A

    If constipation lasts for more than seven days after treatment, the child has persistent bouts with constipation or is in acute pain, they should see their pediatrician immediately.

  • Q How do I know it is constipation and not something else?

    A

    While it’s perfectly normal for your child to experience occasional constipation, it’s not normal for it to be prolonged or ongoing. If constipation lasts for more than seven days after treatment, you need to see a doctor to rule out a more serious medical condition or set up a treatment approach for a chronic constipation condition.

  • Q How is constipation treated?

    A

    Parents can often successfully treat constipation with diet changes and over-the-counter medicine. They should, however, seek the counsel of a healthcare professional for children aged 2 and under and/or the first time their child suffers from constipation.

  • Q How do I prevent constipation?

    A

    There are several things you can do to help prevent constipation. Make sure your child eats a well-balanced diet with plenty of fiber. They also need to drink lots of fluids and get plenty of exercise. Most importantly, encourage them to use the bathroom when they need to. Let them play a little longer outside or give them a reward when they stop for a bathroom break. If potty training, make sure you have scheduled “potty time.”

  • Q What is soiling?

    A

    Soiling is what happens when liquid feces leak out around hard, compacted stool. It can happen once or several times a day and is often confused with diarrhea. There is nothing a child can do to withhold it and parents don’t often make the connection between what they think is diarrhea and constipation, making the right diagnosis difficult.

Pedia-Lax® Questions

  • Q How does Pedia-Lax® work?

    A

    The active ingredients in Pedia-Lax® products work in several different ways to help relieve your child’s constipation.

    The active ingredient in Pedia-Lax® Chewable Tablets, magnesium hydroxide, increases the amount of water in the intestine, which promotes bowel movement.

    The active ingredient in Pedia-Lax® Liquid Stool Softener, docusate sodium, works directly on the stool to help soften it.

    The active ingredient in Pedia-Lax® Glycerin Suppositories and Liquid Glycerin Suppositories, glycerin, attracts water into the stool and promotes bowel movement.

    The active ingredients in Pedia-Lax® Enema, sodium phosphates, increase the amount of water in the intestine, which promotes bowel movement.

  • Q After I give my child Pedia-Lax®, how long before they’ll go?

    A

    Results will vary with each child and depend on which Pedia-Lax® product you use, anywhere from a few minutes to 72 hours.

  • Q Can I use Pedia-Lax® for my child under 2 years of age?

    A

    If your child is under age 2, consult your pediatrician.

  • Q Can I use Pedia-Lax® for my child over the age of 11?

    A

    Pedia-Lax® is indicated for children 2-11. Pedia-Lax® would not be unsafe for children over 11, but we recommend using an adult product by Fleet to ensure that the product will be effective for older children.

  • Q Can pregnant women take Pedia-Lax®?

    A

    Pedia-Lax® is designed for children ages 2-11. Pregnant women should consult their doctor before taking any medications.

  • Q Can my child take Pedia-Lax® when taking other medications?

    A

    As with any medication, consult your pediatrician if your child is already taking other medications.

  • Q Which Pedia-Lax® product should I use?

    A

    Choose from five different Pedia-Lax® laxative products. Chewable Tablets, Liquid Stool Softener, Liquid Glycerin Suppositories, Glycerin Suppositories and Pedia-Lax® Enema. The Pedia-Lax® product you choose will be determined by both the severity of the problem and the best delivery system for your child. And to help maintain your child's digestive balance* on a regular basis, try our Probiotic Yums.

    If your child is uncomfortable because of constipation, we first suggest trying an oral product: chewable tablets or liquid stool softener. If your child’s constipation is more severe and you want the quickest relief possible, we suggest suppositories or enemas.

  • Q What’s the difference between the rectal and oral products?

    A

    Oral products are easy to administer and work over a short period of time. Rectal products provide immediate relief. Please see our product information page for details on each product’s reaction time.

  • Q What is the expiration date for these products?

    A

    The expiration date for Pedia-Lax® laxatives is printed on the outside of the carton. 

  • Q How should Pedia-Lax® be stored?

    A

    Pedia-Lax® should be stored at a controlled temperature between 59°-86° Fahrenheit.

  • Q The dosing directions for Pedia-Lax® are by age range. How do I know what part of the range I should use for my child?

    A

    A dosing range by age provides greater flexibility for finding the right dose. As with any medicine, if you have questions or concerns, ask your pediatrician.

  • Q Is it OK for my child to take Pedia-Lax® laxatives every day?

    A

    Pedia-Lax® laxatives should not be taken for more than seven days in a row. If your child experiences constipation for more than seven consecutive days, consult your pediatrician.

  • Q Are your products gluten-free?

Suppositories and Enema Questions

  • Q What’s the difference between the three rectal products?

    A

    Pedia-Lax® Enema is a saline laxative. Pedia-Lax® Liquid Glycerin Suppositories are a glycerin laxative administered in a liquid form applied with a disposable, no-mess applicator. Pedia-Lax® Glycerin Suppositories are small suppositories. They all relieve occasional constipation.

  • Q Is your Pedia-Lax® Liquid Glycerin Suppository latex-free?

  • Q Can the Pedia-Lax® Liquid Glycerin applicator be used more than once?

    A

    No, they are designed to be used only once. Each applicator contains medication for one dose.

  • Q What is the source of your glycerin, animal or vegetable?

    A

    Vegetable.

  • Q Are Pedia-Lax® Glycerin Suppositories available in “infant” size?

    A

    No. Pedia-Lax® Glycerin Suppositories are designed for use in children ages 2-5 years. Talk to your pediatrician about use in children below age 2.

  • Q My child doesn’t do well with suppositories. Every time I get one in, he pushes it out. What can I do?

    A

    Try using Pedia-Lax® Liquid Glycerin Suppositories. They have the same active ingredient in liquid form and can’t be “pushed out” like a regular suppository because they are liquid.

  • Q My child is older than 5. Can I still use Pedia-Lax® Liquid Glycerin or Glycerin Suppositories?

    A

    Children over the age of 5 can use Fleet Adult Liquid Glycerin or Glycerin Suppositories.

Auxiliary substances : Viteptopsol.

5 pcs. - cellular contour packings (2) - packs of cardboard.

Clinical and pharmacological group: Analgesic-antipyretic

Pharmacotherapeutic group: Analgesic non-narcotic agent

Pharmacological action

Has analgesic and antipyretic effect. It blocks cyclooxygenase in the central nervous system, affecting the centers of pain and thermoregulation. In the focus of inflammation, cellular peroxidases neutralize the effect of paracetamol on cyclooxygenase, which explains the absence of a significant anti-inflammatory effect.

The drug does not adversely affect the water-electrolyte metabolism (does not lead to sodium and water retention) and the gastrointestinal mucosa.

Pharmacokinetics

Absorption and distribution

Rapidly and highly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. C max is achieved in 30-60 minutes. Plasma protein binding - 15%. Penetrates through the BBB.

Metabolism and excretion

Metabolized in the liver; 80% reacts with glucuronic acid and sulfates to form inactive metabolites; 17% undergoes hydroxylation to form active metabolites, which are then conjugated with glutathione to form inactive metabolites. With a lack of glutathione, these metabolites can block the enzyme systems of hepatocytes and cause their necrosis. T 1/2 - 2-3 hours. Within 24 hours, 85-95% of paracetamol is excreted by the kidneys in the form of glucuronides and sulfates, unchanged - 3%.

Pharmacokinetics in special clinical situations

V d and bioavailability in children (including newborns) are similar to those in adults. In newborns of the first 2 days of life and in children aged 3-10 years, the main metabolite of paracetamol is paracetamol sulfate, in children 12 years and older - conjugated glucuronide. There is no significant age difference in the rate of elimination of paracetamol and in the total amount of the drug excreted in the urine.

Indications of the drug Cefecon

® D

The drug is intended for use in children aged 3 months to 12 years.

On the part of the hematopoietic system: rarely - anemia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, agranulocytosis.

Long-term use in high doses may develop hepatotoxic and nephrotoxic (interstitial nephritis and papillary necrosis) action, hemolytic anemia, aplastic anemia, methemoglobinemia, pancytopenia.

Contraindications for use

  • under 1 month of age;
  • hypersensitivity to paracetamol.

With caution use the drug for violations of the liver and kidneys, Gilbert's syndrome, Dubin-Johnson, Rotor, diseases of the blood system (anemia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia), deficiency of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase.

Use with caution in case of impaired renal function.

Special instructions

The patient should be warned to consult a doctor if fever persists for more than 3 days and pain persists for more than 5 days.

Simultaneous use with other paracetamol-containing drugs should be avoided. this can cause an overdose of paracetamol.

When using the drug for more than 5-7 days, peripheral blood parameters and the functional state of the liver should be monitored. Paracetamol distorts the performance of laboratory studies in the quantitative determination of glucose and uric acid in plasma.

Overdose

Data on overdose of Cefecon D is not available.

Drug interactions

Inducers of microsomal oxidation in the liver (phenytoin, ethanol, barbiturates, flumecinol, rifampicin, phenylbutazone, tricyclic antidepressants), ethanol, hepatotoxic drugs increase the production of hydroxylated active metabolites, which makes it possible to develop severe intoxication even with a small overdose.

Microsomal oxidation inhibitors (cimetidine) reduce the risk of hepatotoxicity.

When taken simultaneously with salicylates, the likelihood of developing a nephrotoxic effect increases.

When used together with paracetamol, the toxic effects of chloramphenicol are enhanced.

When combined with paracetamol, the effect of indirect anticoagulants is enhanced and the effectiveness of uricosuric agents is reduced.

Storage conditions of the drug Cefecon

® Y

The drug should be stored in a dry place, out of the reach of children, at a temperature not exceeding 20°C.

Shelf life of the drug Cefecon

    Pharmacological properties

    Kipferon ® suppositories are a complex dosage form containing human recombinant interferon-α2 and CIP.

    Interferon-α2 is an activator of innate and acquired immunity, has a pronounced antiviral activity, enhances protection against viral, chlamydial, mycoplasmal and bacterial infections, has an immunomodulating effect in the development of immunological reactions, promotes the growth and preservation of the intestinal and vaginal normal flora. The biological activity of interferon-α2 is realized through interaction with the receptor apparatus of immunocompetent and other cells, leading to an increase in the expression of HLA I and HLA II molecules on the surface of all cell types and the regulation of cell cooperation, an increase in the activity of natural killers, as well as imparting resistance to intact cells against their cytolytic action, proliferation of CD8 T cells. Increases the production of interferon gamma by natural killers.

    CIP contains specific and non-specific Ig classes G, M, A. The combination of antiviral, anti-chlamydial, antibacterial and antitoxic antibodies belonging to different classes of Ig provides agglutination, neutralization and precipitation of etiotropic pathogenic agents. At the site of application, it stabilizes interferon from mucous membrane secretions, normalizes local immunity due to the intake of IgA and IgM with suppositories (substitution effect), increases the activity of locally formed cytokines.
