Before you insert a suppository find the small tear in the foil packet and remove the covering foil, by tearing it in half. 2. If the suppositories have become softened, owing to warm temperature, they can be hardened by putting them into cold water before you remove the covering foil. 3. Insert the whole suppository into the anus. 4. To make insertion easier, either stand with one foot raised on a chair or squat down.
