Jomezal

Ketoprofen lysine, the active ingredient in Jomezal, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) presented as an oral dosage form for oral use. It is employed to relieve mild to moderate pain and to reduce inflammation in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and musculoskeletal disorders.

GNH USA supplies Jomezal as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide. The company adheres to stringent quality standards and provides regulatory documentation for export markets. Clients benefit from reliable logistics and responsive technical support throughout the supply chain.

Jomezal (ketoprofen lysine) is used to manage pain and inflammation associated with several musculoskeletal and rheumatic conditions.

- Mild to moderate pain: provides analgesic relief for acute or chronic pain such as dental or postoperative discomfort. - Rheumatoid arthritis: reduces joint inflammation and swelling, improving mobility. - Musculoskeletal pain: alleviates pain from strains, sprains, and osteoarthritis.

Ketoprofen lysine may cause a range of adverse reactions, varying from mild to severe.

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal discomfort: nausea, dyspepsia, abdominal pain. - Headache: mild to moderate intensity. - Dizziness or vertigo. - Skin rash or pruritus.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding. - Renal impairment or acute kidney injury. - Severe hypersensitivity reactions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. - Hepatic dysfunction or elevated liver enzymes.

When prescribing Jomezal, clinicians should consider several precautionary measures to minimise risk.

- Assess gastrointestinal risk: evaluate history of ulcers, bleeding or concurrent NSAID use. - Evaluate renal function: monitor serum creatinine and avoid in severe renal impairment. - Monitor cardiovascular status: use caution in patients with hypertension or heart disease. - Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary. - Avoid in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketoprofen or other NSAIDs. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original packaging, protect from moisture and heat.

Ketoprofen lysine can interact with other medicines, altering efficacy or safety.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased risk of bleeding. - Other NSAIDs or aspirin: additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - Corticosteroids: heightened risk of ulceration and bleeding. - ACE inhibitors or ARBs: may reduce renal perfusion and function.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Diuretics: possible reduction in renal clearance. - Methotrexate: decreased excretion leading to toxicity. - Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): modestly increased bleeding risk. - Oral hypoglycemic agents: may enhance hypoglycaemic effect.
