Is there a way to securely prevent a mess from using hydrocortisone suppositories? especially since this person runs a restaurant 70 hrs per week
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well sure, but...: ...What are you treating with them? Ask your prescribing doctor if you can time the use of the suppositories just before bed, or if there is an oral medication alternative (preferably non-steroidal).
