Caloket

Caloket (Ketorolac Trometamol) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for pain relief and inflammation management. Available in injectable forms, it is administered intramuscularly or intravenously.

Caloket is primarily used for the short-term management of moderate to severe pain, including postoperative pain and pain associated with various conditions. It is often administered when oral pain relief is not feasible or effective. The drug works by reducing the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation.

Common effects of Caloket may include reduced pain and inflammation at the site of administration. Some individuals may experience side effects such as nausea, dizziness, or gastrointestinal discomfort. These effects vary and are not experienced by everyone.

Caloket should be used with caution in individuals with a history of gastrointestinal issues, kidney problems, or allergies to NSAIDs. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and administration route to minimize potential risks. Always consult a healthcare provider before use.

Caloket may interact with other medications, including blood thinners, diuretics, and certain antidepressants. It is advisable to inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions. Alcohol consumption should be avoided while using Caloket.
