Description
Leader Children's Glycerin Suppositories provide gentle, effective relief from occasional constipation in children. Each suppository contains pharmaceutical-grade glycerin that works as a hyperosmotic laxative, drawing water into the intestine to soften stool and stimulate bowel movements. Specially formulated for pediatric use, these suppositories are smaller in size and milder in action compared to adult formulations. The smooth, torpedo-shaped design ensures comfortable insertion and dissolves completely without leaving residue. Relief typically occurs within 15-60 minutes, making this a fast-acting solution for childhood constipation. This 25-count package provides families with a reliable treatment option for occasional digestive issues. The glycerin formula is gentle enough for regular use when needed, without causing dependency or harsh side effects. Recommended by pediatricians as a safe first-line treatment for constipation in children ages 2-12 years. Each suppository is individually wrapped for hygiene and convenience, with clear instructions for proper administration.
Suggested Use
For children 2-6 years: Use 1 infant suppository daily as needed. Children 6-12 years: Use 1 child suppository daily. Remove wrapper completely before insertion. Insert pointed end first into rectum. Remain lying down for few minutes to retain suppository. Results typically occur within 15-60 minutes.
