suppositoire
suppositoire در ۳۰ ثانیه
- A suppository is a solid medicine form inserted rectally or vaginally.
- It melts at body temperature to release medication.
- Used when oral intake is difficult or impossible.
- Common for fever, pain, and constipation relief.
- Definition
- A suppository is a solid dosage form of medicine that is inserted into a body cavity, typically the rectum or vagina, where it dissolves or melts at body temperature to release medication.
- Purpose
- Suppositories are used when oral administration of medication is not possible or desirable, for example, in cases of severe vomiting, when a patient is unconscious, or to achieve a localized effect in the rectal or vaginal area.
- Common Uses
- They are frequently used to treat constipation, pain (especially in the pelvic area), fever, nausea, and certain gynecological conditions. For children, suppositories can be a convenient way to administer fever reducers or pain relievers when they are unwilling or unable to swallow medication.
- Composition
- Suppositories are typically made from a base of fatty substances (like cocoa butter or synthetic triglycerides) or water-soluble bases (like polyethylene glycol) that melt or dissolve at body temperature, releasing the active drug.
The doctor prescribed a suppositoire to help with the fever.
For infantile constipation, a glycerin suppositoire is often recommended.
She found it difficult to swallow the pills, so a vaginal suppositoire was a better alternative.
- Medical Context
- In medical settings, 'suppositoire' is a standard term used by doctors, pharmacists, and nurses. Patients might hear it during consultations, when receiving prescriptions, or when discussing treatment options with healthcare professionals. It's a direct and precise term for this specific form of medication delivery.
- Patient Experience
- While the term itself is neutral, the experience of using a suppository can vary. Some find it a convenient and effective alternative to other forms of medication, while others may feel uncomfortable or embarrassed. Understanding the term is the first step to discussing these treatments openly.
- Variations
- While 'suppositoire' is the general term, specific types might be referred to by their active ingredient or purpose, such as 'suppositoire à la glycérine' (glycerin suppository) for constipation, or a suppository for pain relief. The context usually clarifies the intended use.
- Basic Usage
- The word 'suppositoire' is a noun and is used directly when referring to the medicinal form. It is typically preceded by an article ('un', 'le', 'la', 'des') or a possessive adjective ('mon', 'son', etc.).
Le médecin m'a prescrit un suppositoire pour soulager la douleur.
The doctor prescribed me a suppository to relieve the pain.
Elle a utilisé un suppositoire à la glycérine pour traiter sa constipation.
She used a glycerin suppository to treat her constipation.
- Describing Use
- When talking about the action of using a suppository, you might use verbs like 'utiliser' (to use), 'insérer' (to insert), or 'prendre' (to take, in a general sense of administering medication).
Il est important d'insérer le suppositoire correctement.
It is important to insert the suppository correctly.
Pour les enfants, il est parfois plus facile de leur donner un suppositoire que de les faire avaler des médicaments.
For children, it is sometimes easier to give them a suppository than to make them swallow medicine.
- Contextual Usage
- The word often appears in discussions about health, medicine, and specific ailments. It can be used in both formal medical contexts and informal conversations about personal health.
La pharmacienne m'a expliqué comment utiliser ce nouveau suppositoire.
The pharmacist explained to me how to use this new suppository.
J'ai peur d'utiliser un suppositoire, est-ce douloureux ?
I'm afraid of using a suppository, is it painful?
- Plural Form
- The plural form is 'suppositoires'. This is used when referring to more than one suppository.
La boîte contient trois suppositoires.
The box contains three suppositories.
Il faut administrer deux suppositoires par jour.
Two suppositories must be administered per day.
- Doctor's Office
- You will most commonly hear 'suppositoire' in a medical context. A doctor might say: "Pour votre fièvre, je vais vous prescrire un suppositoire." (For your fever, I will prescribe you a suppository.) Or, when discussing treatment for children: "Pour les bébés qui ne veulent pas prendre de sirop, le suppositoire est souvent une bonne solution." (For babies who don't want to take syrup, a suppository is often a good solution.)
- Pharmacy
- Pharmacists frequently use the term when dispensing medication or advising customers. They might ask: "Avez-vous besoin d'un suppositoire pour la constipation?" (Do you need a suppository for constipation?) or explain: "Ce suppositoire doit être conservé au réfrigérateur." (This suppository must be kept in the refrigerator.)
- Pediatrician Consultations
- When dealing with children's health, the term 'suppositoire' is very common. A pediatrician might inform parents: "En cas de forte fièvre, n'hésitez pas à utiliser un suppositoire." (In case of high fever, do not hesitate to use a suppository.)
- Discussions about Illness
- In informal conversations about health, especially when discussing remedies for common ailments, people might mention suppositories. For example: "Mon fils était malade hier, on a dû lui donner un suppositoire." (My son was sick yesterday, we had to give him a suppository.)
- Gynecological Context
- In discussions related to women's health, the term 'suppositoire' can also refer to vaginal suppositories. A doctor might say: "Je vous prescris un suppositoire vaginal pour traiter cette infection." (I am prescribing you a vaginal suppository to treat this infection.)
- Veterinary Medicine
- While less common in everyday conversation, veterinarians might also use the term when referring to medication for animals, though specific terms might be used depending on the animal and the administration route.
- Medical Literature
- In medical textbooks, research papers, and pharmaceutical information, 'suppositoire' is a standard and precise term for this dosage form.
Le pédiatre a recommandé un suppositoire pour la fièvre de mon enfant.
La pharmacienne m'a expliqué comment utiliser le suppositoire vaginal.
- Mispronunciation
- Learners might struggle with the pronunciation, particularly the 'sui' sound and the final 'oire'. It's pronounced roughly as 'soo-poh-zee-twahr'. Overemphasizing or misplacing the stress can lead to misunderstanding.
- Confusion with other dosage forms
- A common mistake is to use 'suppositoire' interchangeably with other forms of medication like pills ('pilule'), syrups ('sirop'), or injections ('injection'). While all are ways to administer medicine, 'suppositoire' is specific to rectal or vaginal insertion.
- Gender Agreement
- As 'suppositoire' is a masculine noun, learners might incorrectly use feminine articles or adjectives. For example, saying "une suppositoire" instead of "un suppositoire". This is a fundamental grammar point that needs attention.
- Overgeneralization
- Some might assume that any medication for children that is inserted into the body is a 'suppositoire'. While it's common for children, it's not exclusive to them, and the insertion point (rectum or vagina) is key to the definition.
- Using it in non-medical contexts
- While figurative language exists, using 'suppositoire' outside of a medical or health-related discussion can sound strange or even inappropriate. It's a very specific medical term.
Incorrect: J'ai pris une suppositoire hier.
Correct: J'ai pris un suppositoire hier.
Incorrect: Le médecin m'a donné un sirop au lieu d'un suppositoire.
Correct: Le médecin m'a donné un sirop au lieu d'un médicament à insérer.
- Other Medicine Forms
- While 'suppositoire' is specific, it's part of a broader category of medication administration. Other terms include:
- Pilule / Comprimé (Pill / Tablet)
- Oral medication taken by mouth.
- Sirop (Syrup)
- Liquid medication, often flavored, usually taken by mouth.
- Gouttes (Drops)
- Liquid medication administered in small quantities, often for eyes, ears, or orally.
- Injection / Piqûre (Injection / Shot)
- Medication administered via needle into muscle, vein, or under the skin.
- Crème / Pommade (Cream / Ointment)
- Topical medication applied to the skin.
- Specific Types of Suppositories
- While 'suppositoire' is general, specific types might be mentioned:
- Suppositoire à la glycérine
- A glycerin suppository, commonly used as a laxative.
- Suppositoire analgésique
- A pain-relieving suppository.
- Suppositoire vaginal
- A suppository inserted into the vagina.
- Alternative phrasing
- In less formal or more descriptive contexts, one might refer to it more generally:
- Médicament à insérer
- Medication to be inserted.
- Forme rectale/vaginale
- Rectal/vaginal form (of medication).
Comparison: Le sirop est pour la toux, mais le suppositoire est pour la fièvre.
Alternative: Il a reçu un traitement sous forme de suppositoire plutôt qu'une pilule.

نکته جالب
The concept of inserting substances into the body for medicinal purposes is ancient, with evidence of rectal administrations dating back to ancient Egypt and Greece. The term itself, however, evolved through Latin.
راهنمای تلفظ
- Pronouncing the 'ppoi' as 'poi' instead of 'pwa'.
- Over-pronouncing the final 'r' sound.
- Adding an extra vowel sound between 'sui' and 'toire'.
سطح دشواری
The word itself is specific, but its meaning is generally understandable from context, especially in medical or health-related texts. Advanced texts might use it in more technical pharmacological contexts.

Mastering the Sound
Practice saying 'suppositoire' aloud: 'soo-poh-zee-twahr'. Focus on the 'pwa' sound and the soft final 'r'. Listen to native speakers to get the intonation right. Remember, it's a masculine noun: 'un suppositoire'.
Medical Scenarios
Learn 'suppositoire' in context by imagining scenarios: a doctor prescribing it for a child's fever, a pharmacist explaining its use for constipation, or a patient discussing it as an alternative to pills. This helps solidify its meaning and usage.
Distinguishing Forms
Compare 'suppositoire' with other medication forms like 'pilule', 'sirop', and 'injection'. Understand that 'suppositoire' specifically refers to rectal or vaginal insertion, which is its key distinguishing feature.
Gender and Plural
Always remember that 'suppositoire' is masculine ('un suppositoire'). The plural form is 'suppositoires'. This grammatical precision is important for correct French usage.
Related Terms
Learn related terms like 'rectal', 'vaginal', 'laxatif', 'fièvre', and 'douleur'. Understanding these words will help you grasp the contexts in which 'suppositoire' is used.
Visual Association
Create a mental image: imagine a 'super' (sup) hero delivering medicine through a 'door' (toire) into the body. This can help you remember the word and its function.
Formal vs. Informal
While 'suppositoire' is the standard term, you might hear 'un suppo' used informally, especially when talking about children's medication. However, in formal or medical settings, always use 'suppositoire'.
Health Discussions
Be aware that while medical professionals use 'suppositoire' directly, discussions about its use in personal health might sometimes be sensitive or approached with discretion in non-medical conversations.
Role-Playing
Practice role-playing scenarios: pretend you are a doctor explaining a prescription for a suppository, or a patient asking a pharmacist about one. This active learning reinforces vocabulary.
Etymological Roots
Knowing that 'suppositoire' comes from Latin 'supponere' (to place under) can help you understand its meaning and function more deeply. It relates to the method of administration.

ریشه کلمه
The word 'suppositoire' comes from the Latin word 'suppositum', which is the past participle of 'supponere', meaning 'to place under' or 'to put beneath'. This directly relates to the method of administration.
معنای اصلی: To place under; to substitute.
Latin -> Frenchبافت فرهنگی
The term refers to a method of medication administration that involves intimate body parts. While medically necessary and common, especially for children, discussions about it can sometimes feel awkward or embarrassing for some individuals in non-medical settings.
In English-speaking cultures, the term 'suppository' is also a clinical term, and discussions around its use can range from direct to somewhat embarrassed, depending on the context and individuals involved. The medical community uses it without issue.

سوالات متداول
10 سوالIn French, a suppository is called a 'suppositoire'. It is a solid medicinal form that is inserted into the rectum or vagina and melts at body temperature to release medication. For example, 'Le médecin m'a prescrit un suppositoire pour ma douleur.' (The doctor prescribed me a suppository for my pain.)
Suppositories are used when oral medication is not suitable, such as in cases of severe vomiting, difficulty swallowing, or when a localized effect in the rectal or vaginal area is desired. They are common for treating fever, pain, and constipation, especially in children. For instance, 'Pour les enfants qui ne veulent pas avaler de médicaments, le suppositoire est souvent la meilleure option.' (For children who don't want to swallow medicine, the suppository is often the best option.)
A glycerin suppository is called a 'suppositoire à la glycérine' in French. It is commonly used as a mild laxative. An example sentence is: 'Elle utilise un suppositoire à la glycérine pour soulager sa constipation.' (She uses a glycerin suppository to relieve her constipation.)
'Suppositoire' is a masculine noun in French. Therefore, you use masculine articles and adjectives with it, such as 'un suppositoire', 'le suppositoire', or 'un bon suppositoire'.
Yes, suppositories can be used for adults as well as children. They are prescribed for various conditions, including pain, inflammation, and certain gastrointestinal issues. For example, 'Le médecin a recommandé un suppositoire analgésique pour l'adulte.' (The doctor recommended an analgesic suppository for the adult.)
A 'suppositoire' is a solid medication designed to melt at body temperature for systemic or local effect. A 'pessaire' is typically a device inserted into the vagina for structural support (like for organ prolapse) or for sustained drug delivery, and it doesn't necessarily melt.
The French pronunciation of 'suppositoire' is approximately 'soo-poh-zee-twahr'. The stress is on the second syllable: sup-PO-si-toire.
Yes, suppositories can be formulated for different purposes and sites of administration. Common types include rectal suppositories (for fever, pain, constipation) and vaginal suppositories (often called 'ovules' or 'suppositoires vaginaux' for gynecological conditions). For example, 'Ce traitement est un suppositoire vaginal.' (This treatment is a vaginal suppository.)
'Forme suppositoire' means 'suppository form'. It refers to medication that is prepared as a suppository, as opposed to other forms like pills or liquids. For example, 'Ce médicament existe sous forme suppositoire.' (This medicine exists in suppository form.)
While it's a standard medical term, it's not used in everyday conversation as frequently as words like 'médicament' (medicine) or 'pilule' (pill). You're most likely to hear it in medical contexts, when discussing health issues, or when advised by a doctor or pharmacist.
