Lennon Glycerine Suppositories Adult 12

Glycerine suppositories are the when-you-need-it-now option for constipation. Inserted rectally, the glycerol draws water into the rectum and lubricates, typically producing a result within fifteen minutes to an hour. Because everything happens locally, nothing is swallowed, nothing is absorbed and nothing affects the rest of the gut, which is why they are the standard bridge while an oral laxative takes its day to work, and a staple of post-operative and elderly care. Lennon's adult 12-pack is the standard strength and count of the rapid-relief classic.

Oral laxatives take hours to days. When the situation calls for relief within the hour, local osmotic action at the point of the problem is the fastest clean chemistry available without a prescription. It is also the answer when oral routes are off the table, nausea, fasting, post-operative rules, because it needs nothing swallowed.
