Salofalk (mesalazine) Rectal Suppositories 1000 mg. №10

Ingredients:

Each rectal suppository contains 1000 mg of mesalazine.

Dosage:

The usual dosage is one suppository to be inserted into the rectum once daily, preferably at bedtime.

Indications:

Salofalk suppositories are indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate ulcerative colitis and proctitis.

Contraindications:

Do not use Salofalk suppositories if you are allergic to mesalazine or any other ingredients in the product.

Directions:

Before using the suppository, empty your bowels and wash your hands thoroughly. Lie on your side and insert the suppository into the rectum as directed.

Scientific Evidence:

Studies have shown that mesalazine, the active ingredient in Salofalk suppositories, is effective in reducing inflammation in the colon and rectum. Research published in the Journal of Crohn’s and Colitis demonstrated that mesalazine therapy significantly improved clinical symptoms and endoscopic appearance in patients with ulcerative colitis.

Additional Information:

It is important to continue using Salofalk suppositories as prescribed by your healthcare provider, even if you start to feel better. Abruptly stopping the medication can lead to a recurrence of symptoms. If you experience any severe side effects or allergic reactions, seek medical attention immediately.

Salofalk suppositories work by releasing mesalazine directly in the colon and rectum, where it exerts its anti-inflammatory effects. Mesalazine inhibits the production of inflammatory mediators and promotes tissue healing, making it a cornerstone in the treatment of ulcerative colitis.
