I suffer from UC. On an ad hoc basis, in case of increasing the exacerbation, I am to use Metronidazole and Salofalk in infusions for 14 days. If I don't have Salofalk ingots, can I use Salofalk suppositories interchangeably?

Such a change is beyond the competence of the pharmacist and requires consultation with the attending physician. You can find out more about drug substitutes here:

According to the manufacturer of the drug, the availability of Salofalk ingots is still very limited, although small quantities of packages remain on sale from time to time. We can ensure full availability only in December this year.
I am attaching information on the availability of Salofalk in ingots in pharmacies cooperating with GdziePoLek: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/68631/salofalk-zawiesina/apteki
I would like to point out that there are equivalents of this drug available on the market, i.e. Pentas. It contains the same substance, in the same dose, also in the form of ingots. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/60259/pentasa-zawiesina/apteki
