Directions for use
- At the start of treatment , Posterisan Akut should be applied 2 to 3 times a day; once symptoms have improved , twice a day. The amount of rectal ointment used depends on the size of the affected areas of skin and mucous membrane. You must consult a doctor if your symptoms have not improved within 7 days or if they recurshortly after stopping use of the rectal ointment .
- Posterisan akut contains a fast-acting anaesthetic. For this reason, it is recommended that only a small amount of the rectal ointment be used. The maximum single dose of 2.5 g of rectal ointment must not be exceeded.
- Posterisan akut is applied in the morning and in the evening, preferably after a bowel movement. It is recommended that the medicine be stored at room temperature (18–25 °C) to make it easier to apply the rectal ointment. When applied outside the anus, the rectal ointment should be applied in a thin layer and gently rubbed inwith a finger.
- The pack includes an applicator with side openings , which helps to distribute the rectal ointment evenly and in sufficient quantity within the anal canal and theadjacent rectal area.
How to use the applicator:
- Screw the applicator onto the tube and remove the cap.
- Squeeze the tube to dispensethe rectal ointment into the applicator until it emerges from the side openings.
- Carefully insert the applicator into the anus until you feel it stop clearly . Lubrication can be improved by coating the applicator with a small amount of rectal ointment. Pressing the tube again will then dispense the rectal ointment into the anal canal . Careful rotation of the tube ensuresthe rectal ointment isdistributed sufficiently .
The best way to clean the applicator after use is to squeeze out a small amount of rectal ointment through the side openings, wipe the surface with absorbent paper and replace the cap to prevent the rectal ointment from drying out inside the applicator. If the rectal ointment is not to be used for an extended period, the applicator should beunscrewed and cleaned with warm water .
Note:
- When applying ointments and suppositories to the anal area , your underwear may become soiled. It is therefore recommended that you cover the anal area (e.g. with a tissue or a cotton wool pad).
Duration of use:
- The duration of use depends on the type and severity of the symptoms. However, the rectal ointment must not be used continuously for longer than 7 days without medical advice. If the symptoms return shortly after stopping treatment , you must consult a doctor.
Use in children and adolescents:
- The dosage recommendations described above also apply to children and adolescents (≥ 50 kg) aged 12 years and over. Posterisan akut must not be usedin children under 12 years of age or weighing less than 50 kg.
