Unwrapping Suppositories

Is it just my fumbling fingers, or is trying to peel the foil off a rectal suppository a royal pain in the ass?

I find foil wrap on acetaminophen especially difficult. Seriously, what's the trick?

When I am going to use a bisacodyl suppository - I remove the package from the freezer, Then take the foil wrapper off immediately and set the suppository on a piece of TP to 'rest' while I get into position for 'lift off'...I mean administration!

@Vicki_V - I would think NOT peeling the foil wrapper off of the supp would be more of a royal pain in the ass.

The packages are hard to open, I'm using scissors.

@Anne20 "The packages are hard to open, I'm using scissors."

I use nail scissors to clip off the end of the foil. The rest is challenging.

Yes, hard to open.

Yes. And they make a tell-tale noise.

Yep. Pain in the ass. By the time you get it open, it's melted.
