How to Use

How to use Voltaren Suppositories 100mg

The doctor will tell you how to use Voltarol Suppositories. Always follow his/her instructions carefully. The dose will be on the pharmacist’s label. Check the label carefully. If you are not sure, ask your doctor or pharmacist. Keep using the suppositories for as long as you have been told, unless you have any problems. In that case, check with your doctor.
Suppositories are designed for insertion into the back passage (rectum). Never take them by mouth.
The doctor may also prescribe another drug to protect the stomach to be taken at the same time, particularly if you have had stomach problems before, or if you are elderly, or taking certain other drugs as well.
Adults
Voltarol Suppositories are normally inserted one, two or three times a day up to a maximum total daily dose of 150mg. The number of suppositories you need will depend on the strength which the doctor has given you.
Elderly
Your doctor may advise you to take a dose that is lower than the usual adult dose if you are elderly. Your doctor may also want to check closely that the Voltarol Suppositories are not affecting your stomach, particularly during the first 4 weeks that you are using the suppositories.

How to insert the suppositories
 Empty your bowels before inserting a suppository.
 Wash your hands.
 Take out the strip of suppositories and tear off one along the perforation.
 Then take the suppository out of the plastic wrapping by pulling back the loose end.

Lie on one side with your knees pulled up towards your chest.
 Gently push the suppository pointed end first into your back passage (rectum) with your finger. Push the suppository in as far as possible

Lower your legs and, if possible, stay still for a few minutes.
 If you feel as if you need to push the suppository out, try to resist this by lying still with your buttocks pressed together. It is important to keep the suppository in the rectum to allow it to melt and the medicine to be absorbed. Pushing the suppository high into the rectum with your finger will help to reduce this feeling.
 Wash your hands.
