Expelled too soon?

I woke up with a major headache this morning and took a 650mg Tylenol suppository. 20 minutes later i had some coffee which made me go and the suppository coming out with it. Does anyone here know the absorption rate and if i can insert another one cause i still have this headache but dont want to risk tylenol overload!

DEFINITELY expelled too soon. It didn't get absorbed.

If you have a headache, take the damn pills. 😁

They work much faster and better due to better absorption.

Take a motrin or aleve with the tylenol, they synergize with each other.

You're simply not going to get into toxic range by taking another suppository. Why not take it orally to begin with? The only reason would be if you're nauseated. If you drank coffee you're not nauseated.

As long as you dont go over 4grams of tynole in 24hrs your ok.

When I was aged 5 or 6 that was a regular complaint of my mother's - part of the glycerin suppository came out "too soon" (probably within seven minutes, but I'm just guessing), with a small amount of oily or mushy dooey, which was never enough to stop her from pushing another suppository up me, even as I protested that since I'd just "done" I didn't need one. This happened probably 6-10 times in the weeks leading up to the nurse incident. I can remember similar things happening with Melanie [my daughter] when she was little.

Growing up, I got Fletcher's Castoria at bedtime every night (except Friday, when we got castor oil). Glycerin or Dulcolax suppositories were given the following morning if we didn't move our bowels before breakfast. I don't recall ever receiving a second glycerine suppository; if the glycerin didn't work, the next suppository was Dulcolax. If we didn't go by school time, we were kept home for hourly laddered enemas til clear. I don't recall ever getting suppositories other than the laxative suppositories with the exception of 25 mg phenergan if nauseated. Just like with enemas, we hated them at first, but look forward to them now. Of course, like enemas, they're better with a like-minded friend!

Yes I would agree with the others- take the pills first for headache pain. But if you are doing suppositories of any kind, based on my experience, you need at least 20 minutes or more for it to completely melt. I have not taken anything but glycerin suppositories and possibly other types that contain anti-inflamatories may take longer to melt. Since this type of suppository was not formulated to help you have a BM, then you never should have seen again after it was inserted. Essentially you needed to insert and that's it; hopefully you won't have the urge to expel it.
