Best time to take a suppository

I was wondering, what is the best time to take a suppository (laxative)? Is it best to take it after I eat or if I'm hungry or haven't eaten in a while but not hungry. And would it be better to take when I have to shit or when I don't have to. Which will give the strongest results. If it makes a difference I use bisacodyl suppositories.

It depends on why you are giving yourself a suppository. Do you just want a bowl movement, or like myself and others here for other reasons. If it's just to have a poo then you would insert one either in the morning or 2 to 4 hours after you have eaten as your rectum should be full if you don't already feel this, glycerin or bisacodyl wont matter in my opinion. I hope this help's you!

The morning is best time to take a suppository. I find I can't hold them for as long then.

It is best to insert a Glycerine Suppositiry at night when going to bed and let the suppository act and do it job of softening the bowel movement while you sleep.

I usually do it at night, though that's only because I don't want anyone in my house to know I'm using them to mess myself (I use them to fill my diapers)

Usually I try to eat a lot on the day of and a bit before, and usually best results are when I have that slight urge where I could push out a load if I wanted, but it isn't cramping or that strong.

As for which suppo, it depends on what effect your body would give you, and what you're looking for. I've find the bisacodyl make me want to stop fighting and let it flow out, while the glycerin makes me want to push it out after fighting it and then keep leaking out after I start, not letting me stop. Warning though, the bisacodyl makes you feel like you need to keep going after you're cleaned out though, so depends on how much time you have for it. glycerin, depending on how many you take and your body could take maybe an hour at best from start to complete finish, while my experience with two bisacodyl made me feel it's effects for two hours just in my diaper., with it lasting about half that time AFTER the movement

Try experimenting, also, if you want something strong, mix those suppos with some chilled marshmallows, that'll probably make it fire out of you

Twenty years ago here in Germany a "Dulcolax combination pack" for the preparation for a X-examination of the colon was available, consisting of 2 Dulcolax pills and 2 Dulcolax suppositories. The 2 Dulcolax pills ought to be taken in the evening, the 2 Dulcolax suppositories ought to be inserted in the morning.

Growing up, if there wasn't time for an enema, I would get a glycerin suppository or two inserted just before breakfast. At first, I would expel them soon after they were inserted, so my oldest sister would insert a tampon to ensure their retention. I would have a strong urge to go by the time breakfast was finished and the glycerin had done it's job .
