PHARMACOLOGY
Ketorolac Tromethamine (Ketoprix) is a potent analgesic of the non-steroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It inhibits the cyclo-oxygenase enzyme system and
hence prostaglandin synthesis. Thus it gives minimal inflammatory effect at its
analgesic effect. Ketorolac Tromethamine (Ketoprix) is not an anesthetic agent and
possesses no sedative or anxiolytic properties; therefore it is not recommended as
a preoperative medication for the support of anesthesia when these effects are
required. It is not an opioid and has no known effects on opioid receptors.
