Rectol 80 Suppository is meant to be placed inside the rectum (bottom area). It uses the body's heat and melts inside, resulting in direct absorption into the bloodstream and rendering quick relief. Use Rectol 80 Suppository as directed by your child’s doctor. Before insertion, wash your hands properly. Guide your child to lie down sideways or on the belly. Hold one buttock gently to get access to the rectal area. Unwrap the medicine and hold the rounded end close to the rectum. Use one finger to gently push Rectol 80 Suppository into the rectum. Ask your child to remain still for about 15 minutes as it will prevent the medicine from popping out. Clean your hands again with soap and water to ensure hygiene.
