Fleet Cleen is a Ready-to-Use bowel cleanser that you administer yourself. It is used for the relief of occasional constipation through drawing water to the colon which helps to produce a bowel movement. This product can also be used when bowel cleaning is required, e.g. before an endoscopy, bowel surgery or X-ray examination.

Wash your hands before handling this product and if possible, use disposable gloves. Lie on your left side with both knees bent and your arms at rest in front of you. Remove the orange protective shield- pull the shield gently while holding the bottle upright and grasping the grooved bottle cap with your fingers. With steady pressure, gently insert the enema Comfortip into the rectum with the tip pointing towards your navel Squeeze the bottle until nearly all the liquid has been emptied. Gently remove the nozzle from your rectum. It is normal to experience some leakage of the enema liquid. Remain in the same position until the urge to evacuate your bowels is strong- usually within 2 to 5 minutes. Return the used enema to the carton for disposal and wash your hands.

If any resistance is encounters- discontinue use. Forcing an enema can result in an injury. NOTE: it isn’t necessary to empty the unit. The bottle contains more than the amount of liquid needed for effective use, so a small residue will remain.
