Square Pharmaceuticals PLCProduct Description
Ketorolac Tromethamine is a highly potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) belonging to the heteroaryl acetic acid derivative family, utilized primarily for the short-term management of moderate to severe acute pain. Its primary mechanism of action involves the non-selective inhibition of cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzymes, which halts the biosynthesis of prostaglandins—the lipid mediators responsible for inflammation, pain, and fever. Unlike many other NSAIDs, Ketorolac is distinguished by its exceptional analgesic efficacy, which is often compared to low-dose opioids, but without the associated risks of respiratory depression or physical dependence. It is commonly administered in post-operative settings to bridge the gap between parenteral and oral analgesia; however, its clinical use is strictly limited to a maximum duration of five days. This limitation is critical because of the drug's high propensity for serious adverse effects, including gastrointestinal ulceration, perforation, and renal impairment, which are exacerbated by its potent inhibition of protective prostaglandins. Consequently, Ketorolac requires careful patient screening, particularly in individuals with pre-existing renal dysfunction or a history of peptic ulcers, to balance its superior pain-relieving capabilities with its significant safety profile.
