Indications In Each 59-mL Delivered Dose: Uses: For relief of occasional constipation.
Directions In Each 59-mL Delivered Dose: Directions: Single daily dosage (per 24 hours). Do not use more per day unless directed by a doctor. See warnings. Do not use if child is taking another sodium phosphates product. One-half bottle preparation: Unscrew cap and remove 2 tablespoons of liquid with a measuring spoon. Replace cap and follow how to use this enema directions. How to use this Enema: Remove green wrapper with fleet emblem and orange protective shield from Enema Comfortip before inserting. With steady pressure, gently insert Enema tip into rectum with a slight side-to-side movement, with tip pointing toward navel. Insertion may be easier if child receiving enema bears down, as if having a bowel movement. This helps relax the muscles around the anus. Stop using if tip is hard to insert. Forcing the tip into the rectum can cause injury (especially if your child has hemorrhoids). If enema tip causes rectal bleeding or pain, get immediate medical care. Squeeze bottle until nearly all liquid is gone. It is not necessary to empty the bottle completely, as it contains more liquid than needed. Remove Comfortip from rectum and keep child in position until urge to evacuate is strong (usually 1 to 5 minutes). Positions for using this enema: Left-Side Position: Place child on left side with knees bent, and arms resting comfortably. Knee-Chest Position: Have child kneel, then lower head and chest forward until left side of face is resting on surface with left arm folded comfortably. If no urge is felt after 5 minutes of using, have your child try to empty bowel. Call a doctor promptly if no liquid comes out of the child's rectum after 30 minutes because hydration could occur. Children 5 to 11 Years:: 1 bottle per day or as directed by a doctor. Children 2 to Under 5 Years:: One-half bottle per day (see below). Children Under 2 Years:: Do not use.
