Instructions on administering your
Fleet Enema
How to use:
- Remove orange protective shield from enema Comfortip® before inserting.
- With steady pressure, gently insert enema tip into rectum with a slight side-to-side
- movement, with tip pointing toward navel. Insertion may be easier if person receiving
