3 Reasons Why Paracetamol Suppositories Work Better Than Pills

Medical science has a solution for every patient. There are pills and tonics but every customer’s body doesn’t react well to these conventional mediums. Pills are not suggested for small children or infants because for them swallowing is difficult. Tonics also cause reactions because of which the kids and elderly patients end up vomiting.

For patients with special needs, paracetamol suppositories prove helpful. Instead of digesting, these medicines are inserted through the body’s posterior. These suppositories work better than pills especially for elder patients and even infants.

Paracetamol Suppositories

Here are a few reasons why these suppositories are better than pills.

Fast relief

Suppositories provide faster relief than pills and tonics. The patients who require these mediums have special needs so they cannot wait for the pill to go inside their body and then take time to show effect. Not only paracetamol but even acetaminophen suppositories work in a similar way. If an infant is suffering with fever then one can easily insert a paracetamol suppository and the fever will come down in a few hours.

Negligible side effects

Pills and tonics have their own side effects and in case of patients with special needs, it is important to make sure that they don’t suffer in case a tonic reacts to their body. Since paracetamol suppositories do not have any contact with intestine or digestive system, these side effects are eliminated.

Easy to apply without expert supervision

The entire procedure is very easy in case of paracetamol suppositories. Anyone, with formal understanding of how the medicine works, can apply it on the patient’s body. In certain cases, where suppositories are required during long term use, this proves extremely helpful. It eliminates the need for a nurse and hence proves cheaper.
