Indications & Clinical Uses

  • 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.

How It Works

  • Ketoprofen reversibly inhibits cyclooxygenase‑1 (COX‑1) and cyclooxygenase‑2 (COX‑2) enzymes, decreasing the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. The reduced prostaglandin synthesis leads to diminished inflammation, pain signaling, and fever responses at the site of tissue injury.

Side Effects

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

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding
  • Acute renal impairment
  • Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis)
  • Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis
  • Hepatic dysfunction
  • Cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction

Precautions & Warnings

  • Before using Ketoprofen Terapia, consider the following precautions.
  • 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.
  • Evaluate cardiovascular history: use cautiously in those with heart disease.
  • Use lowest effective dose: limit exposure to reduce adverse event risk.
  • Avoid in known hypersensitivity: discontinue if allergic reactions occur.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep in original packaging, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Avoid Interactions

Ketoprofen may interact with several medicines; some combinations should be avoided while others require monitoring.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Warfarin: increased risk of bleeding.
  • Other NSAIDs: additive gastrointestinal toxicity.
  • Corticosteroids: heightened ulcer risk.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • ACE inhibitors: possible decline in renal function.
  • Diuretics: may reduce renal clearance of ketoprofen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ketoprofen Terapia is an NSAID indicated for the relief of pain and inflammation associated with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and other musculoskeletal conditions such as sprains and strains.

Ketoprofen reversibly blocks COX‑1 and COX‑2 enzymes, which reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins—key mediators of pain, fever, and inflammation—thereby providing analgesic and anti‑inflammatory effects.

The prescribed dose is determined by the treating clinician based on the patient’s specific condition, severity, and response. Dosing regimens are individualized and should follow the prescriber’s instructions.

Safety data for ketoprofen during pregnancy are limited, and it is generally avoided, especially in the third trimester. Breastfeeding mothers should consult a healthcare professional before use, as the drug may be excreted in milk.

Submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com with the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Ketoprofen shares the COX‑inhibition mechanism of other NSAIDs but often provides a faster onset of analgesia and may have a stronger anti‑inflammatory effect at comparable doses. Individual response varies, and safety profiles should be considered when choosing an NSAID.

Store the product at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in its original container. Protect it from moisture and direct sunlight to maintain potency and stability.

Ketoprofen Terapia is supplied as an injectable preparation for intramuscular injection. Administration should be performed by a qualified healthcare professional using aseptic technique.

Serious adverse events include gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, acute renal impairment, and rare skin conditions like Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Immediate medical attention is required if any of these occur.

Patients with known hypersensitivity to ketoprofen or other NSAIDs, active gastrointestinal ulcer disease, severe renal or hepatic impairment, and those on anticoagulant therapy should avoid using this medication unless specifically directed by a physician.
