Suppositories on a schedule

The most common use of suppositories is in response to an ailment or constipation. In the movie La Baule les Pins, however, a mother of two has her daughters take a glycerin suppository every evening to induce a bowel movement; the reason is not explained but one can assume she wants to "keep them regular" even though they have no particular issues.

Were you submitted to schedule or otherwise "preventive" suppositories, be them laxative or otherwise?

Is there a scene in that film where she gives it to them ?

If you're running a high fever, are in pain or have a condition when you can't keep oral meds down, Acetaminophen (Tylenol) suppositories are given on a 4- to 6-hour schedule. It's especially "fun" when your partner or one of your kids needs to be awakened so you can give a suppository in the middle of the night. ☹️ Another one of those "mom things" we do.

Ma900: No, in the movie the maid hands the suppositories to the girls in the evening, but they are allowed some privacy for using them. In fact, they discard them in a fish pond.
