When using Glycerine Suppo’s Adultes Kela, certain precautions should be observed to minimize risk and ensure appropriate use.

Glycerol suppositories have limited systemic absorption, but they may interact with certain medications or conditions.

Avoid

• Concurrent use with other osmotic or stimulant laxatives, which may increase the risk of electrolyte imbalance.
• Use in patients with intestinal obstruction or perforation.

Use with caution

• Medications that can cause diarrhea, such as certain antibiotics or magnesium‑containing antacids.
• Diuretics, as fluid loss from diarrhea may potentiate dehydration.
• Electrolyte‑altering drugs (e.g., ACE inhibitors, potassium‑sparing diuretics).
• Patients with renal impairment, where fluid shifts require monitoring.
