Description

Ketorolac 30 mg/mL 1 mL Prefilled Syringe is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for short-term management of moderate to severe pain. It is commonly used in postoperative settings or for the treatment of acute pain that requires opioid-sparing therapy. Ketorolac is designed to provide effective analgesia by reducing inflammation, pain, and swelling.

The mechanism of action of ketorolac involves the inhibition of cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2), which are responsible for the production of prostaglandins, the chemicals in the body that mediate inflammation and pain. By blocking these enzymes, ketorolac helps to reduce the inflammatory response and provides pain relief.

Common side effects of ketorolac include gastrointestinal upset, headache, dizziness, and potential renal effects. Prolonged use or excessive dosages can lead to more serious adverse effects, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, renal impairment, or cardiovascular events. Ketorolac should not be used for more than five days due to the risk of these complications.
