Uceris Foam - Question

I’ve just started Uceris foam, and while I have used all kinds of rectal meds, I’m a little stressed about this one.

When I depress the canister and then release it, I don’t know if it’s the gas or what, but I feel this noticeable, uncomfortable pain immediately - like a strong soreness/fullness. It takes about a minute or so and then gradually goes away.

It is super uncomfortable, but since the Uceris appears to be working, I want to finish this course of it - which means 5.5 more weeks of this. Has anyone else felt this discomfort? Does it ever go away?

I never had this with Cortifoam, but I’m thinking that’s because it didn’t use that aerosol delivery system?

(I seriously wish Cortifoam was still available 😩)
Thanks!

That Reddi Whip moment must mean that you are getting the proper dose, so stick with it, especially if you are getting benefit. My GI thinks the foam is superior to hydrocortisone enemas. I have never used a foam other than Uceris, so can't compare. Report the pain to your doctor if it doesn't get better over time.

That drip oozing out of the applicator after the foam is applied is reasonable, expected and reassuring. The system is working! The amount wasted is negligible.
