Injection Treatment For Incontinence

How can Solesta help?

Get control with a visit to your doctor

Solesta is a treatment for accidental bowel leakage, also known as fecal incontinence. Fecal incontinence is more common than you may think. Unfortunately, millions of people suffer every day from accidents and leaks. But Solesta can help. It is given in your doctor’s office and is proven to help reduce accidents.

Solesta is for people who have not had relief from

– Changes in diet
– Exercise
– Drugs that soften the stool
– Drugs meant to slow down the digestive process

How does Solesta work?

Solesta is a gel that is given through 4 injections into the wall of the anal canal. It helps give you more control by bulking up the tissue in the anal canal. The injections do not usually cause pain and anesthesia is not necessary.

Solesta is composed of naturally made materials called dextranomer and sodium hyaluronate. The gel is similar to the natural starches, sugars, and tissue in your body.
