Ketoprofene Lp Arrow (Ketoprofen)

Ketoprofen works by non‑selectively inhibiting the cyclooxygenase‑1 and cyclooxygenase‑2 enzymes, which blocks the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins and thromboxanes. The resulting decrease in prostaglandin levels reduces inflammation, pain, and fever at the site of tissue injury.

The specific dose of Ketoprofene Lp Arrow is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the individual’s condition, severity of symptoms, age, renal and hepatic function, and other concurrent medications. Healthcare professionals follow local prescribing guidelines to select an appropriate regimen.

Safety data for ketoprofen in pregnancy and lactation are limited, and the drug is generally avoided unless the potential benefit outweighs the risk. Women who are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding should discuss alternative therapies with their healthcare provider.

Both ketoprofen and ibuprofen belong to the NSAID class and share a similar mechanism of COX inhibition. Ketoprofen is often considered slightly more potent on a milligram‑per‑milligram basis, but it may also carry a higher risk of gastrointestinal irritation. Choice between them depends on clinical response, tolerability and physician preference.

Ketoprofene Lp Arrow tablets should be stored at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C. Keep them in the original blister or container, protect from moisture, heat and direct sunlight, and keep out of reach of children.

The product is taken orally, usually with a full glass of water. It may be taken with food or after meals to lessen possible stomach upset, unless the prescriber advises otherwise. Swallow the tablet whole; do not crush or chew unless instructed.

Serious adverse events include gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration, severe liver injury, acute kidney impairment, anaphylactic reactions, and cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction or stroke. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms like black stools, severe abdominal pain, jaundice, sudden swelling, or difficulty breathing.

Ketoprofene Lp Arrow should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to ketoprofen or other NSAIDs, active peptic ulcer disease, severe heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, significant renal or hepatic impairment, and in patients taking anticoagulants without close monitoring. Pregnant women in the third trimester and breastfeeding mothers should also refrain unless directed by a physician.
