You can take those "alternate" methods and stick them up your assz.

Suppositories can be very useful for patients who are unable to swallow. Many terminally ill patients take SSRIs. Their SSRI may have to be discontinued abruptly if they loose the ability to swallow. Increased distress and unpleasant withdrawal symptoms may result.
IMO, it would be useful if fluoxetine was available as suppositories.
Why are people (particularly American and British men) so averse to the use of suppositories? Grow up guys! What is their problem? Do they not wash properly? ;-)
Suppositories can be useful in many circumstances.....
1. For people who can't swallow tablets
2. For people who are suffering from severe nausea and vomiting eg. due to migraine
3. For the terminally ill
4. When a local action on the rectum is required eg. Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn's disease, Haemorrhoids
5. For babies eg. acetaminophen for an acute infection
6. In the treatment of severe constipation
Suppositories are not difficult to use - nor are they particularly messy. Wash your hands! :)

While we're talking about alternate methods, how about we smoke that sheeit. I'm down for a fluoxetine philly blunt.

Proladone suppositories for desensitising the soppositorily avoidant bloke. Works like a charm, you've no idea.

Phenergan suppositories work well too. I agree with Ed what is the problem suppositories can sometimes be the only way to give a med. Babies are given them all the time. And post op pts too. Fondly, Phillipa

Maybe its because women are used to inserting things into their intimate places?
And I don't get it either why some men find these things so funny. Maybe its something to do with a 'fear' of being perceived as being homosexual?? So they need to poke fun at it? It really annoys me actually. I have a gay brother and some straight men are so outrageously rude about that I often can't believe it. These are educated, liberal men!! Yet they call him names in the way that some (mostly straight?) men talk about suppositories......yet they don't make fun at women using tampons, or lesbians.

Hey, I don't think its got anything to do with that. I am gay, but it just seems that there is something intrinsically abnormal (to me) with putting small quantities of strange substances in weird places :)

Yeah you're right, it was just a rant/observation from a weekend spent with a couple of male homo-phobes who won't even see brokeback mountain. Grrrrr
Personally, I don't find it (suppositories) weird. Maybe its because my ma used to take my temperature with one of those thermometers designed for that area, or because I'm (as a woman) more used to fiddling about with things down there......IMO having a cervial smear test is FAR worse than putting some chemicals (myself) up my behind.....Smear tests are PRUE EVIL, although I expect thats a drop in the ocean compared to childbirth. Oh well......

Oh well......I'm not a homo-phobe, I have met some great friends who are gay...I don't care if they are, it's their life, it's their choice, just as it is mine to be hetero-sexual. My personal prob is I just have a hard time with suppositories FOR ME, they are a wonderful way to deliver meds in the terminally ill, elderly and also babies. And one day I may not have a choice..it's not that big of a deal, It's just uncomfortable for me. A few years ago I had a Prostate exam..finger up the bu*t and it was very uncomfortable and actually painful...but, in life somethings are uncomfortable and even painful-all well, things could always be much worse.

In a part of Australia, Rockhampton, the beef capital, Brokeback Mountain was actually censored to protect local sensitivities from anger arising from the spectacle of two men kissing and the rest. Clearly these people do not have enough to worry about; they must be so relaxed.

Once my nutritional docor looked at my PSA results and said 'we need a baseline here. You must have an ultrasound and I need to paplate your postate.' I said 'Now??', because it was the start of the long consultation which lasts at least an hour and I didn't like the idea of sitting through it after that. And he said 'Of course, why not', and so we did it and before you knew it it was over and it didn't hurt and then we sat and talked about tests and supplements and all the rest.

from burroughs...
Then [the anus] developed sort of teeth-like little raspy incurving hooks and started eating. He thought this was cute at first and built an act around it, but the *sshole would eat its way through his pants and start talking on the street, shouting out it wanted equal rights. It would get drunk, too, and have crying jags nobody loved it and it wanted to be kissed same as any other mouth. Finally it talked all the time day and night, you could hear him for blocks screaming at it to shut up, and beating it with his fist, and sticking candles up it, but nothing did any good and the *sshole said to him: ‘It’s you who will shut up in the end. Not me. Because we don’t need you around here any more. I can talk and eat and sh*t’.
After that he began waking up in the morning with a transparent jelly like a tadpole’s tail all over his mouth… He would tear it off his mouth and the pieces would stick to his hands like burning gasoline jelly and grow there, grow anywhere on him a glob of it fell. So finally his mouth sealed over, and the whole head would have amputated spontaneous… except for the eyes you dig. That’s one thing the *sshole couldn’t do was see. It needed the eyes. But nerve connections were blocked and infiltrated and atrophied so the brain couldn’t give orders any more. It was trapped in the skull, sealed off. For a while you could see the silent, helpless suffering of the brain behind the eyes, then finally the brain must have died, because the eyes went out, and there was no more feeling in them than a crab’s eye on the end of a stalk. (pp. 110-111)
