Accott identifies Ketrocot as a ketorolac tromethamine dispersible tablet for short-term treatment of moderate-to-severe acute pain. (OSAKA88)
* Important: The supplied photograph does not show the numerical strength on the front panel. The usual oral ketorolac tromethamine tablet strength is 10 mg, and official pharmacopoeial information lists 10 mg as the usual strength. (Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission) Therefore, 10 mg is the likely strength, but the exact Accott pack should be confirmed from the back/side composition panel.
Ketorolac tromethamine is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) belonging to the pyrrolo-pyrrole group. It works mainly by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing prostaglandin production and thereby reducing pain and inflammation. (DailyMed)
It is particularly used for short-term moderate-to-severe acute pain, for example:
Severe dental pain
Post-operative pain
Acute musculoskeletal pain
Other short-duration acute painful conditions
Accott specifically describes Ketrocot as intended for short-term use, up to 5 days, rather than chronic pain treatment. (OSAKA88)
“Dispersible” means the tablet is designed to disperse/dissolve in water before administration according to the product instructions. This is different from an ordinary tablet that is simply swallowed whole.
The exact Accott-specific excipient list is not visible in your photograph, so it should not be assumed.
For comparison, approved ketorolac tablets from other manufacturers may contain ingredients such as microcrystalline cellulose, lactose, magnesium stearate, croscarmellose sodium, colloidal silicon dioxide, hypromellose and polyethylene glycol. These vary between manufacturers and therefore are not being claimed as the exact excipients of Ketrocot. (DailyMed)
Ketorolac is a potent NSAID and is intended only for short-term use. It can cause:
Stomach irritation, ulcer or gastrointestinal bleeding
Kidney problems
Increased risk of bleeding
Allergic reactions
Cardiovascular adverse effects in susceptible people
Do not combine it with other NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, diclofenac, naproxen, nimesulide or mefenamic acid unless specifically instructed by a doctor.
KETROCOT = Ketorolac Tromethamine, likely 10 mg per dispersible tablet + excipients q.s.
If you upload the back side of the Ketrocot box, I can give you the exact strength and complete “each tablet contains” composition, without estimating.
