Product Overview
Magic Bullet Suppository - Laxative Suppositories - 10mg Bisacodyl Suppository
The Magic Bullet Suppository by Concepts in Confidence
Allegro Medical presents the one of a kind Magic Bullet Suppository designed to aid with chronic constipation and bowel impaction.
Who uses the Magic Bullet Suppository?
The typical user of the Magic Bullet Suppository is an individual with a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI)or disease, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, spina bifida, long-term care, or stroke where damage occured to the nerves that allow a person to control bowel movements. Additionally, any persons suffering from constipation associated with oncology or opioid treatment. Magic Bullet Suppositories are incorporated into Bowel Management programs for individuals with neurogenic bowels to help prevent unplanned bowel movements and other bowel problems such as constipation, diarrhea and impaction. The Magic Bullet Suppository® is recommended by most major rehab centers.
What ingredients are in the Magic Bullet Suppository?
- 10mg. of bisacodyl
- Polyethylene Glycol base which is water-soluble
Why use the Magic Bullet Suppository vs. Dulcolax, Theravac/Enemeez, CEO-TWO, Fleets and hydrogenated vegetable oil based bisacodyl (HVB) suppositories?
Dulcolax and the other Bisacodyl suppositories have the same active ingredient (10mg Bisacodyl) as The Magic Bullet. The base, or carrier of the active ingredient in the suppository is what differentiates the Magic Bullet from all of the rest. The Magic Bullet uses a Polyethylene Glycol base which is water-soluble. This base allows the Bisacodyl to be activated by the body’s own moisture shortly after insertion. The Dulcolax and other Bisacodyl suppositories use a vegetable oil base. This type of base takes longer to work because it needs time to be melted by the body's heat. Bisacodyl suppositories with a vegetable oil base often require a prolonged period to produce defecation and can cause continued mucosal irritation with resultant mucus accidents (anal leakage) hours after the Bowel Program (BP).
Clinical Studies have shown that The Magic Bullet proves to be just as effective as Mini enemas like Therevac and Enemeez in bowel program time plus it's easier to use as it requires less hand dexterity.
The Magic Bullet uses stimulation of the bowel wall to cause peristalsis to push out the stool. CeoTwo on the other hand produces a gas inside the bowel which relaxes the bowel, causing the movement.
The Magic Bullet is far less costly than its competition. Less than half the price of Dulcolax, and less than a quarter the price of mini enemas.
Finally, it is concluded that the replacement of hydrogenated vegetable oil based bisacodyl (HVB) suppositories with Polyethylene Glycol base suppository, such as The Magic Bullet, will reduce bowel care time by 50%(J Spinal CordMed1997;20:227 229).
How should the Magic Bullet be inserted?
Remove the suppository from the outer white wrapper. You should use a water-soluble lubricant such as KY or Surgilube to ease insertion and insure ease of entry. Vaseline (Petroleum Jelly) should NEVER be used as it is barrier between the active ingredient and the bowel.
IMPORTANT PLEASE READ
- Magic Bullets only need to be refrigerated if the household temperature goes above 76 degrees. It is not recommended that they ever be frozen. Freezing can destroy the effectiveness of the active ingredient rendering the Magic Bullet useless.
- How long can the Magic Bullet sit in my house before they go bad? The Magic Bullet has 6 month expiration date (shelf life).

This is water based where my son used the Ducolax at pharmacy and it is vegetable oil base that did not work good. With the Magic bullet it works in 5 minutes and my son hasn't needed as many fleets and this is less time consuming and less hospitalization. Pharmacy at home knows nothing about this or supply it .....Iowa City recommend this for my son who has gastroparesis and spastic sphincter of rectum is CP and w/c bound........I order 100 from here Allegro and it is Magic!!!!

With a child you might cut in half. Was he recently injured? If so, how often did he go before? Try to match that routine. If his stool has white goo, or bile in it, or expels later, slow down, add a day to the routine. You might also look at Magic Cleanse.

I would say the suppository is meant to be used as part of a bowel program for regular bowel maintenance. A fleet saline enema would be more appropriate for occasional constipation not addressed by a regular regimen, not regularly.

Has anyone experienced leakage after using the Magic Bullet? My daughter has CP, & we use the Magic Bullet for her bowel needs. They worked perfectly for about 6 months but now she's having leakage about 6-8 hours after she has the BM. Any advice or tips?

Unfortunately not all of the suppository may come out right away after a bowel movement, but it eventually does after sitting upright a while. After all BMs are over, sit upright a while then manually stimulate to get it out.

Can she push? If so make sure she is pushing at the end of the BM. Sometimes there is a little more that will fall out later if you don't do that.

Are you giving her enough time to empty her bowels. I use it with my son that has a SCI, and he seats in the shower chair over the toilet for 1hr. For my 90yrs old Dad with Alzheimer's we do the bowel program on the bed and do wait 1hr too, no problem with leakage. Good luck

My son who is a C-5 quad, uses only half a magic bullet. It gets the job done and since we have been doing that, along with giving him enough time, it cut down on the surprises.

I've actually called the maker of the Magic Bullet (Concepts in Confidence), and asked the same question. They told me the Magic Bullets are good for a full year after the expiration date. They are mandated to put expiration dates on their products that fall within a specified period, but the actual useful life of the product goes well past that date.
I've used the product for almost a year past the date on the package (due to an extended rehab stay I had in a hospital, I had almost a full box of the Magic Bullets at home when I got back home), and they worked just as well as newly-bought ones did.
So don't worry about the expiration date; it doesn't mean much.

From website:
The Magic Bullet 10mg bisacodyl suppository - Different, faster acting, safe and sure!
To see the difference between the Magic Bullet Suppository and others, compare this suppository to Dulcolax, other bisacodyls, Theravac/Enemeez, and Ceo-Two. The Magic Bullet Suppository is designed to help minimize the cost and excessive time involved in most bowel programs. Magic Bullet Suppositories do not use an oil base (hydrogenated vegetable oil) as does Dulcolax and other bisacodyls, where the oil base has to melt before the bisacodyl can stimulate the bowel to contract and push out the stool.

The Magic Bullets have the same ingredient in them as the over-the counter suppositories do. The main difference is how the suppository is made.
The over-the-counter suppositories are oil-based, but the Magic Bullets are water-based.
For me, the oil-based ones don't work well at all. But the water-based ones work, well, like "magic".
Go to the Concepts in Confidence website to learn more about the difference between their product and the other over-the-counter ones.

The slimy substance is not likely to be the suppository. It's probably mucus that lines the intestinal tract. I get this when I'm not eating enough whole grains, vegetables, and fruit.

If you are getting a substance coming out after you have finished your bowel program, then you have not completely finished. The suppository will evacuate itself upon completion. You are probably rushing, try to do a digital stimulation and see it that takes care of the problem.

The discharge you are experiencing is due to the irritant effect of the bisacodyl. It is a stimulant or contact laxative. Why would you want to use this product and put up with constant smelly discharge??? Enemeez works in 2 - 15 minutes, has no discharge and virtually no episodes of incontinence.

If you go to the Magic Bullet website. They tell you that at the end of your bowel program, if you insert a small amount of water soluble lube, it stops the magic bullet stimulation. You won't have that small discharge later. Works great for us.
