Abstract: A suppository applicator is disclosed having a cylindrical, hollow barrel forming a suppository chamber at one end, and guiding a plunger shaft at the other end. The plunger shaft terminates at a plunger head which slidably travels within the suppository chamber. A stop shield is formed annularly about and extending outward from the barrel, and forms both an insertion as well as a shield. A grippable lip opposed to the gripping portion of the plunger shaft is also included.
