What is Ketoprofen?

Ketoprofen, the active ingredient in Ketospray, is a non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory drug presented as a topical spray for topical use. It treats localized musculoskeletal pain, sprains, strains and superficial inflammatory conditions in adults, and is also indicated for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis when applied to the affected joints.

GNH USA supplies Ketospray as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

What is Ketoprofen used for?

Ketoprofen, a topical NSAID, is used to relieve pain and inflammation in several musculoskeletal and joint conditions.

Localized musculoskeletal pain: reduces pain and inflammation at the site of application. Sprains and strains: alleviates swelling and discomfort in injured soft tissues. Osteoarthritis (topical treatment): improves joint function and lessens chronic pain. Rheumatoid arthritis (topical treatment): helps control localized joint inflammation. Other superficial inflammatory conditions: provides symptomatic relief for skin‑level inflammation.

What are the side effects of Ketoprofen?

Ketospray may cause local and systemic adverse reactions, most of which are mild and reversible.

Common Side Effects: - Skin irritation or burning sensation at the application site. - Redness or erythema. - Itching or mild rash. - Dryness of the treated skin.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Allergic reactions such as angioedema or Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. - Severe skin necrosis or ulceration. - Systemic NSAID effects including gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding. - Renal impairment or hepatic dysfunction.

What precautions apply to Ketoprofen?

Before using Ketospray, consider the following safety measures.

Avoid use on broken skin: do not apply to cuts, abrasions or open wounds. Do not apply to infected areas: infection may worsen with topical NSAID use. Limit exposure to sunlight: prolonged UV exposure can increase skin reactions. Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular disease: NSAIDs may affect platelet function. Pregnancy and breastfeeding: discuss risks with a healthcare professional before use. Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and heat.

What does Ketoprofen interact with?

Ketospray can interact with systemic medications; monitor patients accordingly.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Oral anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): increased bleeding risk. - Concurrent systemic NSAIDs: additive gastrointestinal toxicity. - Corticosteroids: heightened ulcer risk.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Diuretics: possible renal function impact. - ACE inhibitors: potential renal impairment.

Frequently asked questions

What is Ketospray used for?+
Ketospray is a topical spray containing ketoprofen, an NSAID that is applied to the skin to relieve pain and inflammation associated with localized musculoskeletal discomfort, sprains, strains, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as other superficial inflammatory conditions.
How does ketoprofen work?+
Ketoprofen blocks the activity of cyclooxygenase‑1 and cyclooxygenase‑2 enzymes, which are required for the production of prostaglandins. By reducing prostaglandin synthesis, it lowers inflammation, swelling and pain at the site where the spray is applied.
What is the usual dose of Ketospray?+
The specific amount of Ketospray to be applied and the frequency of use are determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s condition, severity of symptoms and treatment goals.

Serious risks include severe allergic reactions such as angioedema or Stevens‑Johnson syndrome, skin necrosis, and systemic NSAID‑related effects like gastrointestinal bleeding, renal impairment or liver dysfunction. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they notice signs of a serious reaction.
Who should not use Ketospray?+
Ketospray should be avoided by individuals with known hypersensitivity to ketoprofen or other NSAIDs, those with active skin infections at the intended site of application, and patients who have experienced severe cutaneous adverse reactions to topical NSAIDs in the past.
