Is it safe to take two enema (one at night and one in the morning) a day?

What else are you taking? How many grams are the enemas you have?
Posted 12/31/2012 4:32 PM (GMT 0)
Enema are 1000mg I believe
Then 9 Colazal (tablets 3 times a day).

DSM? is that diamond star motors? Do you like Chrysler? Or the Mitsu Eclipse line?

Yes it does stand for that. I have a worked 1995 eagle talon Tsi Eagle Talon.

You're using the Pentasa enemas?

Yes, it's fine to do both...but I'd suggest you ask the doc for the Rowasa...at least the 2g...or better yet, the 4g.

Perrigo measalamine suspension enema 4 g/60 mL.
I was going to take one dosage in morning and one at night. Dr tells me just once a day but my recent flare has me expelling the medicine in the middle of the night where as when I take after my BM in morning I can hold it all day.

One of the best cars I ever owned. Problem is its too fast now and things are starting to breaking with the extra added HP. I am in the process if selling it to a friend because I just don't have time to work on it like I use to.

OK, the 4g.

You should make sure firstly if your prescription states you can use them up to twice a day. If not, you will run out of enemas and possibly not be able to refill them.

Ask the doc if you can use it during the day then....

Unless you're more severe, I'd suggest only using them once a day.

Have you been on any other oral 5ASA other than colazal?

Well got 1 hr sleep lastnight. Went to bathroom and night and had the hot chills all night. All I want to do at this point is throw up. Whatever is in me I want it out!

oh wow...I hope you can get a hold of your doc tomorrow to see if he can see you asap.

how many times at night did you go?

What other meds are you on?

I have used enemas 2x a day. Usually I would use an enema at night and a suppository in the morning. I've also used a steroid foam enema at night and and a suppository or enema in the morning.
