Ketorolac

Ketorolac is a powerful nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve moderate to severe pain, often after surgeries or injuries. It works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. Ketorolac is usually given by injection or as a short-term oral medication, and it is not typically used for long-term pain management due to potential side effects, such as stomach issues or kidney problems. Physicians often prescribe it for short durations to help manage pain effectively while minimizing risks. Always use ketorolac under medical supervision.
