Details and Features:
Dosage Form: 60 mg per 2 mL vial
Packaging: 25 vials per pack
Administration Route: Intended for intravenous (IV) or intramuscular (IM) injection
Use: Short-term management of moderate to severe acute pain, typically used for no more than five days

Mechanism of Action:
Ketorolac works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is essential in the biosynthesis of prostaglandins from arachidonic acid. Prostaglandins play a pivotal role in the mediation of inflammation, pain, and fever. By reducing the production of these compounds, Ketorolac provides effective analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic effects.

Renal Risk: May cause or exacerbate renal impairment, especially in dehydrated patients or those with pre-existing kidney problems.
