Ketorolac Tromethamine Dispersible Tablets 10 mg

Description

Ketorolac Tromethamine Tablets are strong pain-relief medicines that doctors often use for a short time. They help people who have just had surgery or are suffering from moderate to severe pain. These tablets are not like regular painkillers that you can buy at a medical store. They are special and are only given with a doctor’s prescription. People take them when simple medicines like paracetamol or ibuprofen do not work.

This medicine belongs to a group called NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs). It is very good at reducing swelling, pain, and fever. It does not treat the cause of pain, but makes the person feel better by blocking certain chemicals in the body. These chemicals are called prostaglandins, and they are the reason we feel pain and inflammation.

So, if you or your loved one needs strong relief for a few days after surgery or an injury, this medicine can help a lot – just make sure to use it carefully.

Uses of Ketorolac Tromethamine Tablets 

Here are the detailed uses of ketorolac trometamine tablets: 

After Surgery Pain Relief – Doctors give this tablet to patients who have had surgery to reduce strong pain.

Muscle and Joint Pain – It helps in painful conditions like sprains, strains, and arthritis.

Injury-Related Pain – Used when there’s sudden pain from falls, accidents, or sports injuries.

Tooth or Back Pain – Dentists and doctors may use this for serious toothaches or backaches.

Swelling and Inflammation – It reduces swelling and redness in painful areas.

This medicine is only for short-term use (usually not more than 5 days).

How Ketorolac Tromethamine Works in the Human Body

Ketorolac works by blocking an enzyme called cyclooxygenase (COX). This enzyme helps make prostaglandins in the body. Prostaglandins cause pain, swelling, and fever. By stopping this enzyme, Ketorolac lowers the amount of prostaglandins, so you feel less pain and swelling.

Unlike painkillers that make you sleepy or dizzy, Ketorolac works directly on the pain signals in your body. It doesn’t affect your brain, it works in your tissues where pain and swelling happen. That’s why it is often used after surgeries when people are in a lot of pain but need to stay awake.
