Overview

Salofalk 500mg Suppository is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Mesalazine 500mg. It is supplied as a suppository and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.

Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Salofalk 500mg Suppository is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Salofalk 500mg Suppository is inserted rectally, usually after a bowel movement. Wash your hands before and after use. Lie on your side with one knee bent, and gently insert the suppository, pointed end first, into the rectum using your finger, pushing it in far enough that it does not slip out. Try to retain it for as long as possible, ideally overnight, for the medicine to act directly on the lining of the rectum.

Dosage

The usual dose of Salofalk 500mg Suppository for active proctitis (inflammation limited to the rectum) is one suppository (500mg) inserted into the rectum once daily, typically at bedtime. Your doctor will advise on the duration of treatment and may adjust the dose based on your response.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
