What is Ketoprofen
Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for relief of symptoms of arthritis, fever, as an analgesic (pain reliever), especially where there is an inflammatory component, and dysmenorrhea.
Ketoprofen is known to have an antiplatelet effect, though it is relatively mild and short-lived when compared with aspirin or other better-known antiplatelet drugs.
Ketoprofen is a medication used for the management and relief of osteoarthritis symptoms. The brand names of this medication are Orudis, Oruvail, and Actron. Osteoarthritis is a type of arthritis that results due to the linings of the joints breaking down. This medication soothes symptoms of the condition, such as stiffness, tenderness, swelling, and pain. Ketoprofen is also used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, which is an arthritis that comes from the joint linings swelling up. There are both non-prescription and prescription versions of the medication.
Function of Ketoprofen
Ketoprofen is generally prescribed for arthritis-related inflammatory pains or severe toothaches that result in the inflammation of the gums. Ketoprofen topical patches are being used for treatment of musculoskeletal pain.
Ketoprofen can also be used for treatment of some pain, especially nerve pain such as sciatica, postherpetic neuralgia and referred pain for radiculopathy, in the form of a cream, ointment, liquid, spray, or gel, which may also contain lidocaine, along with other agents which may be useful, such as cyclobenzaprine, amitriptyline, acyclovir, gabapentin, orphenadrine and other drugs used as NSAIDs or adjuvant, atypical or potentiators for pain treatment.
