Why Suppository for Fever Reduction Is Not Recommended
Suppositories for fever reduction are absorbed through the rectal mucosa, and their absorption efficacy is influenced by factors such as intestinal motility and mucosal condition, resulting in significant individual variability. The antipyretic effect is less stable and predictable compared to oral formulations. During administration, the suppository must be inserted deeply into the rectum; improper insertion may lead to dislodgement or inadequate placement, compromising absorption. This poses increased procedural risks, especially in infants and young children who often have poor cooperation.

Oral ibuprofen may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, while fever-reducing suppositories are less irritating to the gastrointestinal tract but may cause local discomfort. The specific choice should be based on individual needs. Regardless of which medication is selected, it should be used according to the recommended dosage to avoid overdose.
