a medication form inserted into the body, usually in the rectum or vagina, where it dissolves or melts to release the medication
A suppository is a solid medication that is inserted into the body through the rectum, vagina, or urethra for absorption. Suppositories are made of a substance that melts at body temperature, allowing the medication to be absorbed into the bloodstream or have its effects directly in the area where it is inserted. They are commonly used for conditions such as constipation, hemorrhoids, nausea, or to give medications when oral intake is not possible.
