What are suppository drugs?

Are you tired of swallowing pills? Do you hate the taste of medicine, and wish there was an alternative way to get relief? Well then, my friend, let me introduce you to a magical but peculiar form of medication – suppositories!

Hey Freud! What is a Suppository Drug?

A suppository is a medication delivered in tiny missile-like containers that are inserted through your backdoor. It’s like giving yourself an enema but with drugs that fix things inside your body instead of water trying to come out.

Taking It Up The Bum For Medicinal Purposes

Suppositories may seem overwhelming because they go where no pill or syrup has gone before – up the butt; However,“taking it up the bum for medicinal purposes” still sounds better than swallowing some chalky pills does it not?”

Who Should Use Them?

Anyone really! People who struggle taking medications orally can benefit from using suppositories. These could be someone experiencing nausea related to chemotherapy, difficulty swallowing due to stroke or throat pain and even babies who cannot swallow tablets can use them.

How do They Work?

After inserting one into your rectum, its coating melts away by your body temperature allowing our helpful drug soldiers (who were trapped inside this alien pod) ready access along what I fondly refer as ‘poop tunnel’–another term used for rectal canal–to deliver healing powers while bypassing stomach acid & juices during their descent.

Avoid Doing this!

If inserted backward and/or unwrapped before insertion , serious injuries may occur such as feces pushing back against whatever object had been nervily superglued stuck in your poop chute resulting extreme discomfort at best…ewwwwww gross🤢😳

Are They Effective And Safe?

Certainly! Depending on each person’s health status and medical conditions requirements maybe different though so it’s best advised to consult your healthcare provider.

According to The Mayo Clinic, some suppositories are designed for local effects in certain parts of the body that oral medications may not reach. For instance, Diclofenac sodium (Voltaren) suppository form is an effective anti-inflammatory pain reliever prescribed by doctors worldwide from knee pains down through hemorrhoids.

Meanwhile, when traveling or unable to keep pills down it’s particularly useful for calming motion sickness as found with promethazine hydrochloride used frequently amongst cruise lines enthusiasts.

However a word of caution regards the active ingredients present inside each suppository and if one has been diagnosed with hypersensitivity or serious allergic reactions it could cause unwanted side affects like itching on skin 🤢 . It would definitely add insult to injury.

Who Invented Suppository Drugs?

Would you believe that these lovely little missiles have existed since the ancient time? Yes! They’ve stuck around ever since physicians discovered giving drugs this way–known today as ‘rectal administration’– was a superior method of delivering life-saving medical intervention vs pigeons hatching out drugs.

The fact is humans tinkered using what they had access too back then with evidence suggesting Egyptians were partaking anal meds during 1500 BCE which was quickly adopted & improved upon by Greeks from Hippocrates days onward; Arabs made significant contributions too including burning aromatic candles shaped objects inserted similar area and developed numerous treatments both medicated & non-medicated such as turpentine/dormant bug eggs/salt all dangling in shape resembling rabbit ears over anus cavity/chamber pots full duration either causing revulsion chugging any averting smell!

If we skip forward more than two thousand years later since its initial development these fancy pygmy-like bullets continue acting as something marvelous tool providing benefits especially where alternatives aren’t suitable – making them truly unique in every sense.

How Do You Use Them?

Below is a handy guide so you’ll know all the need-to-know basics of how to use suppositories.

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap, and dry them.
  2. For many brands on the market nowaday, remove their protective wrapping.
  3. If necessary lubricate it but ensure not one drop has come in contact with any other surface/tissue/object first or it could cause unwanted side affects like itching on skin🤔
    4.. While lying down on one’s side ( usually left lateral recumbent position), separate butt-cheeks, gently insert pencil-sized med into rectum by approx 3-4 inches advancing forward before disengaging
  4. Squeeze butt cheeks together for a minute or two assisting preventing suppository from emerging out again prematurely
    6.Wash bulb/vial using warm cup water

Simple as that! As soon as the little demons have been effectively released inside your bum chimney they will quickly begin getting absorbed into body smoothening shortly after hurty insides.
