Ketoprofene Lp Cristers (Ketoprofen)

Ketoprofen works by non‑selectively inhibiting the cyclooxygenase enzymes COX‑1 and COX‑2, which reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins. Lower prostaglandin levels decrease inflammation, pain signalling and fever, providing analgesic and anti‑inflammatory effects.

The appropriate dose of Ketoprofene Lp Cristers is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the patient’s condition, age, renal and hepatic function, and other individual factors. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not adjust the dose on their own.

Safety data for ketoprofen in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It is generally advised to avoid NSAIDs, including ketoprofen, during the third trimester and to discuss any use during pregnancy or breastfeeding with a qualified healthcare provider.

Both ketoprofen and ibuprofen belong to the NSAID class and share similar mechanisms of COX inhibition. Ketoprofen is often considered slightly more potent on a milligram‑per‑milligram basis, but individual response, tolerability and safety profile may differ, so the choice depends on clinical judgment and patient factors.
