canasa - help/question

In an attempt to find remission and avoid pred I asked my GI if a rectal med might be worth a try. He prescribed canasa. Well I tried it tonight and the darn thing kept slipping out! Any tips for keeping it in? It finally got too soft that I couldn't push it in anymore.

Thanks!

Stand up straight with legs together. Touch the suppository as little as possible before putting it in. Use a disposable glove if your hands are warm. Keep fingers pressed on butt hole so that it can not come back out. It will usually dissolves quickly before it gets a chance to. Good luck!

What are you putting on your finger to protect and how far are you pushing it in?

Ellen- what do you mean by this? I have been using these nightly as well and I dont put anything on my finger at all..
