Directions for Use
This is a prescription medicine. Take only as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. Use one enema at bedtime (or as prescribed), after emptying the bowel if possible. Shake well, lie on your left side, gently insert the nozzle and slowly squeeze the contents in, then stay lying down to help retain it overnight for maximum effect. Use for the course prescribed, including for maintenance. Confirm the regimen with your doctor.
Report any worsening of colitis symptoms (increased bloody diarrhoea, cramping, fever). Rarely mesalazine can worsen symptoms. Report unexplained bleeding, bruising, fever or sore throat (blood effects). Kidney function is monitored periodically; tell your doctor about kidney problems and any salicylate (aspirin) allergy. Drink plenty of fluids. Use in pregnancy on medical advice. Persistent or severe flares need medical review.
