holes in rectogesic tube

Postby connej » 12 Jun 2014, 08:19

Hi guys..

just wondering if this happens to other people or just me..

Every tube of rectogesic i use seems to develop little holes in the tube...

it has happened to me twice in a row...

Does this mean i need to buy a new one?

its annoying because in Australia its $35 a tube

Could you just wrap the tube in cling film or something?? I'm sure that would keep it fresh, so you wouldn't need to pay for another one.

They are metal tube so when they bend or you roll them up they split where you bend them

Yes, perhaps you may want to squeeze your tube into a container. I have to get my ointments compounded and have always opted for the container over a tube.
