Area of Science:

  • Medical Case Reports
  • Urology
  • Pharmacology

Background:

  • Diclofenac suppositories are commonly prescribed for pain and inflammation.
  • Proper administration technique is crucial for effective drug delivery and patient safety.

Observation:

  • A 44-year-old female patient presented with an unusual finding in her urine sample.
  • The sample contained remnants of a suppository base.

Findings:

  • The presence of suppository base in the urine was attributed to incorrect insertion of a diclofenac suppository.
  • This indicates a medication administration error.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of patient education on correct suppository usage.
  • Underscores the need for vigilance in identifying medication administration errors in clinical practice.
  • May prompt review of patient counseling protocols for rectal medications.
