What is Ketoprofen?

Ketoprofen, the active ingredient in Ketoprofen Terapia, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) presented as an injectable formulation for intramuscular use. It treats pain and inflammation in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal disorders.

GNH USA supplies Ketoprofen Terapia as a licensed, GDP-compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

What is Ketoprofen used for?

Ketoprofen Terapia belongs to the NSAID class and acts on inflammatory pathways to relieve pain and swelling.

Rheumatoid arthritis: reduces joint pain, swelling and stiffness. Osteoarthritis: alleviates chronic joint discomfort and improves function. Musculoskeletal pain: provides rapid analgesic relief for sprains, strains and other soft‑tissue injuries. Inflammatory conditions: diminishes localized inflammation and associated symptoms.

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

Common Side Effects: - Gastrointestinal discomfort or dyspepsia - Nausea or vomiting - Headache - Dizziness - Injection‑site pain or erythema - Mild skin rash

Assess renal function: evaluate baseline kidney status, especially in elderly patients. Monitor gastrointestinal risk: avoid use in patients with a history of ulcers or bleeding.

Avoid in known hypersensitivity: discontinue if allergic reactions occur. Store at ambient temperature: keep in original packaging, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.
