Frequently asked questions

What is Ketorolac Trometamol used for?+
Ketorolac Trometamol is an injectable NSAID indicated for the short‑term management of moderate to severe acute pain, such as post‑operative pain, acute musculoskeletal injuries, and dental pain, when rapid analgesia is required.
How does Ketorolac Trometamol work?+
The drug blocks cyclooxygenase‑1 and cyclooxygenase‑2 enzymes, which reduces the production of prostaglandins. Lower prostaglandin levels decrease inflammation and peripheral sensitisation of pain receptors, providing potent analgesic effects.
What is the usual dose of Ketorolac Trometamol?+
The specific dose and duration are determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s condition, weight, renal function, and route of administration. Ketorolac is typically limited to a maximum of five days of therapy.
Is Ketorolac Trometamol safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Ketorolac is generally avoided during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, because of potential fetal renal effects and bleeding risk. Limited data exist for breastfeeding; therefore, use should be considered only if the potential benefit justifies the possible risk to the infant.
How do I order Ketorolac Trometamol from GNH USA?+
Enquiries are submitted via the product page on gnh-usa.com, where you specify the required quantity.

How does Ketorolac compare with other NSAIDs?+
Ketorolac is distinguished by its strong analgesic potency, comparable to moderate‑strength opioids, and a rapid onset when given intravenously or intramuscularly. Unlike many NSAIDs, it is typically reserved for short‑term use because of higher risks of renal and gastrointestinal adverse effects.

The product should be stored below 25 °C in its original packaging, protected from moisture and light. Do not freeze. Inspect the vial for particulate matter before use and discard if the solution appears discoloured.
How is Ketorolac Trometamol administered?+
Ketorolac Trometamol is supplied for intramuscular or intravenous injection. The preparation is reconstituted according to the manufacturer’s instructions and administered by a qualified healthcare professional, typically as a single dose or repeated doses under strict time limits.
What are the most serious risks associated with Ketorolac Trometamol?+
Serious risks include gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration, acute renal failure, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, and cardiovascular events like myocardial infarction or stroke, particularly in patients with existing risk factors.
Who should not use Ketorolac Trometamol?+
Ketorolac is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketorolac or other NSAIDs, active peptic ulcer disease, severe renal impairment, recent coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and in those receiving anticoagulant therapy where bleeding risk is unacceptable.
