Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

Pharmacodynamics

It has a strong analgesic effect, moderate antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effect.

They are associated with indiscriminate inhibition of the enzyme cyclooxygenase of the first and second types in peripheral tissues, resulting in inhibition of the synthesis of prostaglandins - mediators of pain, inflammation and thermoregulation.

The drug has no effect on opioid receptors, does not cause addiction, does not depress breathing, and does not have a sedative or anxiolytic effect.

The strength of the analgesic effect is comparable to morphine and superior to other drugs in its group.

After oral administration, the analgesic effect is recorded after one hour, the greatest effect – after one to two hours. After an intramuscular injection, the onset of the analgesic effect is recorded after 30 minutes, the greatest effect – after one to two hours.

Pharmacokinetics

When taken internally and when administered by injection, it is actively absorbed from the intestines and tissues. The maximum concentration in the blood is recorded after 40-50 minutes, both after oral administration and after intramuscular injection. Eating does not affect absorption. Plasma protein binding is about 99%.

The half-life is approximately 6 hours. 90% of the dose is excreted by the kidneys, in its original form - 60%; the remaining amount is excreted through the digestive tract.

Instructions for use of Ketorolac (Method and dosage)

Ketorolac tablets instructions for use recommend using them orally. Single dose - 10 mg. The next time you use it, you can take 10 mg up to four times a day; the highest daily dose should not be more than 40 mg. The duration of treatment is up to 5 days.

Ketorolac injections instructions for use recommend that when administered intramuscularly, stick to a single dose of up to 30 mg once every 4-6 hours. The highest dose is 90 mg (three ampoules) per day. The longest duration of use of the drug is up to 2 days.

Interaction

Use with other drugs from the same group (OKPD - non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs ), glucocorticosteroids, corticotropin, ethanol, calcium supplements increases the risk of ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract and bleeding from the stomach and intestines.

Co-administration with heparin , coumarin derivatives, thrombolytics ( Streptokinase, Alteplase ), cephalosporins, antiplatelet agents, valproic acid and aspirin increases the risk of bleeding.

Ketorolac weakens the effect of diuretic and antihypertensive drugs.

Use together with methotrexate increases hepato- and nephrotoxicity .

Ketorolac enhances the effect of narcotic analgesics.

Myelotoxic drugs enhance the hematotoxic effect of the drug.

Ketorolac

Hypersensitivity (including to other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs); complete or incomplete combination of bronchial asthma, recurrent polyposis of the nose and paranasal sinuses and intolerance to acetylsalicylic acid or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (including a history); erosive and ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT)

Side effect

Gastralgia, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, swelling (face, legs, ankles, fingers, feet, weight gain).

Overdose

Symptoms: abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, peptic ulcers or erosive gastritis, impaired renal function, metabolic acidosis. Treatment: gastric lavage, administration of adsorbents (activated carbon) and symptomatic therapy (maintaining vital functions in the body). Ketorolac is not sufficiently eliminated by hemodialysis.

Interaction with other drugs

The simultaneous use of ketorolac with acetylsalicylic acid or other NSAIDs, calcium preparations, glucocorticosteroids, ethanol, corticotropin can lead to a significant increase in the risk of adverse reactions, including the formation of gastrointestinal ulcers and the development of gastrointestinal bleeding. The simultaneous use of ketorolac with anticoagulants (including warfarin, heparin), other NSAIDs, pentoxifylline and probenecid is contraindicated. When ketorolac is used simultaneously with other NSAIDs (including cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors), fluid retention, cardiac decompensation, and increased blood pressure may occur.

Carefully

Bronchial asthma;

the presence of factors that increase gastrointestinal toxicity:

alcoholism, smoking and cholecystitis;
postoperative period;
chronic heart failure;
edema syndrome;
arterial hypertension;
moderate renal failure (creatinine clearance 30-60 ml/min);
cholestasis;
active hepatitis;
sepsis;
systemic lupus erythematosus;
cardiac ischemia;
cerebrovascular diseases;
dyslipidemia/hyperlipidemia;
diabetes;
peripheral arterial disease;
history of ulcerative lesions of the gastrointestinal tract, presence of Helicobacter pylori infection.

special instructions

Before prescribing the drug, it is necessary to find out about the presence of a previous allergy to other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs .

Hypovolemia increases the risk of developing kidney toxicity.

If necessary, Ketorolac can be prescribed with narcotic analgesics . The drug should not be used for premedication or to maintain anesthesia.

Do not use the product simultaneously with paracetamol for more than 5 days.

To reduce the risk of developing gastropathy , misoprostol, antacids, and omeprazole are prescribed simultaneously .

To reduce the risk of side effects, the lowest effective dose should be used for the shortest possible course.

During treatment with the drug, you must be careful when driving.

Ketorolac, 10 mg, film-coated tablets, 28 pcs.

The simultaneous use of ketorolac with anticoagulants (including warfarin, heparin), other NSAIDs, pentoxifylline and probenecid is contraindicated.

When ketorolac is used simultaneously with other NSAIDs (including cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors), fluid retention, cardiac decompensation, and increased blood pressure may occur.

The simultaneous use of ketorolac with indirect anticoagulants, thrombolytics, antiplatelet agents, cefoperazone, cefotetan and pentoxifylline increases the risk of bleeding.

Probenecid reduces the plasma clearance and volume of distribution of ketorolac, increases its concentration in the blood plasma and increases its half-life.

The combined use of ketorolac with sodium valproate causes a disorder of platelet aggregation.

When using ketorolac with other nephrotoxic drugs (including gold preparations), the risk of developing nephrotoxicity increases. Combined use with paracetamol increases the nephrotoxicity of ketorolac. Drugs that block tubular secretion reduce the clearance of ketorolac and increase its concentration in the blood plasma.

The combined use of ketorolac with methotrexate increases the hepato- and nephrotoxicity of methotrexate. The combined use of ketorolac and methotrexate is possible only when using low doses of the latter. The clearance of methotrexate may decrease (it is necessary to monitor the concentration of methotrexate in the blood plasma).

With the use of ketorolac, it is possible to reduce the clearance of lithium, increase its concentration in the blood plasma, and increase the toxic effect of lithium. Simultaneous use with lithium salts is contraindicated.

Ketorolac reduces the effect of antihypertensive and diuretic drugs (the synthesis of prostaglandins in the kidneys is reduced).

Ketorolac enhances the effect of narcotic analgesics. When combined with opioid analgesics, the doses of the latter can be significantly reduced.

Ketorolac enhances the hypoglycemic effect of insulin and oral hypoglycemic drugs, and therefore it is necessary to recalculate the dose of these drugs.

Ketorolac increases the plasma concentrations of verapamil and nifedipine.

Concomitant use of NSAIDs and mifepristone may reduce the effectiveness of mifepristone. NSAIDs are not recommended for use within 8-12 days after using mifepristone.

Concomitant use of NSAIDs and cyclosporine increases the risk of nephrotoxicity.

The simultaneous use of NSAIDs and quinolone antibiotics increases the risk of developing seizures.

Concomitant use of NSAIDs and tacrolimus increases the risk of nephrotoxicity.

Concomitant use of NSAIDs and zidovudine increases the risk of hematological toxicity.

When used simultaneously with digoxin, ketorolac does not interfere with the binding of digoxin to plasma proteins. Therapeutic concentrations of digoxin do not affect the binding of ketorolac to plasma proteins.

Antacids do not affect the absorption of ketorolac.

Myelotoxic drugs increase the manifestations of hematotoxicity of ketorolac.
