Before prescribing the drug, it is necessary to clarify the issue of a previous allergy to the drug or NSAIDs. Due to the risk of developing allergic reactions The first dose is administered under close medical supervision.

Hypovolemia increases the risk of nephrotoxic adverse reactions.

If necessary, can be prescribed in combination with narcotic analgesics.

At joint reception with other NSAIDs, fluid retention, cardiac decompensation, and increased blood pressure may occur. The effect on platelet aggregation ceases after 24-48 hours. Do not use simultaneously with paracetamol for more than 5 days.

Patients with blood coagulation disorders are prescribed only with constant monitoring of platelet counts, especially important for postoperative patients who require careful monitoring of hemostasis.

The risk of developing drug complications increases with lengthening of treatment (in patients with chronic pain) and increasing the oral dose of the drug to more than 40 mg/day.

To reduce the risk of developing NSAID gastropathy, antacid drugs, misoprostol, and omeprazole are prescribed.

During the treatment period, care must be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially dangerous species activities that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions.

Interaction

Co-administration with paracetamol increases the nephrotoxicity of ketorolac.

Taking with other NSAIDs, corticosteroids, ethanol, corticotropin, Ca2+ preparations increases the risk of ulceration of the gastrointestinal mucosa and the development of gastrointestinal bleeding.

Simultaneous administration with anticoagulant drugs - coumarin and indandione derivatives, heparin, thrombolytics (alteplase, streptokinase, urokinase), antiplatelet drugs, cephalosporins, valproic acid and ASA increases the risk of bleeding.

Reduces the effect of antihypertensive and diuretic drugs (reduces Pg synthesis in the kidneys).

Prescription together with methotrexate increases hepato- and nephrotoxicity (their joint administration is possible only when using low doses of the latter and monitoring its concentration in plasma).

When prescribed with other nephrotoxic drugs (including Au drugs), the risk of developing nephrotoxicity increases.

Drugs that block tubular secretion reduce the clearance of ketorolac and increase its plasma concentration.

Increases the effect of narcotic analgesics.

Myelotoxic drugs increase the manifestations of hematotoxicity of the drug.

    I used to take Ketanov for any pain, be it toothache or headache, as well as for menstruation. Although it would be possible to take a painkiller that is not so strong.

It’s not for nothing that Ketanov began to be sold by prescription. Although many pharmacists do not adhere to this rule. But it would be worth it because many people buy it simply to drink it for a headache or toothache. But Ketanov is quite a serious drug and it really can and does have serious side effects.

    I sometimes have severe migraines and, unfortunately, nothing helps me except Ketanov. I understand that Ketanov is far from harmless, but I can’t do without it. No other painkillers help me.

    I know that Ketanov is a very strong painkiller and not so harmless. Its side effects can be quite serious. But I always have Ketanov at home, just in case.

And sometimes there are situations where you can’t do without it.
    Just last month I had to take a couple of pills because nothing else was helping. My period was about to start, and my lower abdomen hurt so much that I almost climbed the wall. At first I tried to get by with regular painkillers, but nothing helped. And then I took Ketanov’s pill, and that’s all that helped.

    I agree and, of course, I will not argue about the fact that Ketanov is an absolutely unsafe drug, it definitely has side effects and it also harms the body very much. But, you must admit, there are situations when the pain is terribly unbearable and you just need time for this pain to go away, but you can’t stand it... I agree and, of course, I will not argue about the fact that Ketanov is an absolutely unsafe drug, it definitely has side effects and it also harms the body very much.
    But, you must admit, there are situations when the pain is terribly unbearable and you just need time for this pain to go away, but you can’t stand it, then such a drug is really needed.
    Now Ketanov should be sold in pharmacies only by prescription, but not everyone does this. Here, in fact, I am a living example. I bought it about two weeks ago, the pharmacist did not ask me for a prescription. Of course, as they say, she knows me by sight. Since the pharmacy is located in our house and when necessary, I buy medicine there.
    I also bought Ketanov about six months ago at another pharmacy and they didn’t ask me for the recipe either.
    But this is a secondary issue.
    Of course, resorting to the help of Ketanov as a pain reliever - I think this is the last option. There is a good alternative - for example - Nimid or Nimesulide. Also quite a strong pain reliever. But again, it may not help.
    I bought Ketanov the other day literally for my husband. When he caught a cold, in addition to a runny nose, he also had a severe cold in his ear. Was severe inflammation and the pain was terrible. He couldn't sleep that night. I took Spaszmalgon, Tempalgin, and Nimid, by the way, too, but the first two drugs didn’t help at all, and Nimid somehow only slightly and not for long.
    That’s when I had to buy Ketanov, which only helped.
    It is produced by many manufacturers. I bought this one.


    If I'm not mistaken, the manufacturer is Sanfarma. The price is not expensive.
    There are 10 tablets in a package. For three days terrible pain in the ear, my husband took 3 tablets. n patient and did not abuse them. I took it when I couldn’t stand it anymore.

    It also seems to me that Ketanov is the most strong drug among those indicated for pain relief. This drug will relieve even the most severe pain in a few minutes and it will not return for several hours. Ketanov helped me a lot after an injury I received at the skating rink. I had a bad fall and was badly hurt, and only Ketanov was able to... It also seems to me that ketanov is the most powerful drug among those indicated for pain relief.

I fell unsuccessfully and was badly hurt, and only Ketanov was able to alleviate my condition.

    I used to take ketans, and then I found out that its danger level is 3 out of 5. This is a lot, now I take Unispaz N, with drotaverine (no-shpa also contains it) and paracetomol in the composition. So now I just drink it. I completely forget about the pain.

    And it’s good that he can’t be found anymore. Health is the most valuable thing in our lives, except for our loved ones, of course. So you shouldn’t spoil them with the help of Ketanov. As for Unispaz N. I agree with you here. An excellent drug. Quite safe and the price is quite reasonable.

    I would like to draw the attention of women that for the treatment of algodismenorrhea - painful menstruation, Ketanov is not accepted, otherwise many accept it, not knowing what the consequences may be, and in gynecological practice There is an excellent drug called Unispaz that will help you without difficulty.

Ketanov tablets as a substitute

What should you do if, for one reason or another, the medicine described above does not suit you? In fact, the modern pharmacological market offers simply a huge amount of painkillers. And often doctors prescribe Ketanov or Ketorol to patients. What's better? By and large, these are one and the same tool.

The main active substance is ketorolac. The drug is available in the form of tablets and solution for intramuscular or intravenous injections. The drug has pronounced anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Today it is considered one of the most powerful analgesics. On the other hand, the medicine is only suitable for short-term control of pain, since otherwise the risk of side effects increases, including ulcerative lesions of the walls of the digestive tract.

So what to take - “Ketanov” or “Ketorol”? What's better? There is no definite answer to this question, since everything depends on the patient’s condition and the severity of the pain syndrome. The decision here can only be made by the attending physician. By the way, Ketanov tablets cost patients much less, although taking them is associated with great risks.

Description of the drug "Ketorolac"

What is the drug "Ketorolac"? It is produced in the form of tablets and belongs to the group of anti-inflammatory and antirheumatic drugs (non-steroidal). The main active ingredient is ketorolac tromethamine.

As you can see, it practically does not matter whether the patient takes Ketorol or Ketorolac, since the main active component is the same and they have the same effect on the body. The medicine copes well with toothache, myalgia, neuralgia, and pain from injuries. It is often prescribed to patients with oncological diseases who suffer from constant discomfort.

Painkiller "Nise": instructions

The drug "Nise" or "Ketorol" - which is more suitable? In fact, "Nise" is quite effective analogue. The composition of these drugs is different, since in this case the main active component is nimesulide. However, the mechanism of action is similar, since the main active ingredient is selective inhibitor cyclooxygenase.

This medicine is available in the form of tablets, oral suspension and gel for external use. The drug also helps with pain syndromes arising from injuries, arthritis and radiculitis. In addition, it is prescribed to patients suffering from sciatica, osteoarthritis, lumbago and osteochondrosis with radicular syndrome.

The drug "Baralgin" and its properties

Many patients ask questions about what is better to choose - Baralgin or Ketorol? In fact, these are different means of action, despite the fact that both of them provide an analgesic effect.

"Baralgin" is available in the form of tablets and solution. This is a complex drug that contains three active substances:

  • Metamizole sodium has antipyretic properties and provides an analgesic effect;
  • fenpiverinium bromide acts on smooth muscles;
  • Pitophenone is another component that causes smooth muscle relaxation.

You can see that the drug "Baralgin" does not have anti-inflammatory properties, but acts as an antispasmodic. Therefore, it is more suitable for pain caused by spasm of smooth muscles. Indications include renal, intestinal and biliary colic, ureteral spasm, chronic colitis and some other disorders of internal organs.

Naturally, you need to understand that only a specialist can prescribe a drug containing tromethamine or select its effective analogue. Ketorol, if used incorrectly, can lead to extremely unpleasant complications, so you should not self-medicate.

How to replace ketans?

How to replace ketans?

The purpose of replacing the drug is not entirely clear - if it has stopped helping, and you are ready to take new prescriptions at the clinic, then very effective painkillers are Pentalgin Plus, Piralgin, Solpadeine, Tetralgin - they all contain codeine, and polyclinic luminaries are extremely reluctant to write prescriptions for them. If the reason for the replacement is precisely the lack of a prescription, you can take regular Pentalgin (without codeine) - however, the dose of Prima will have to be increased.

Ketanov is a strong pain reliever, but has many contraindications. Analogs, such as ketorol, analgesics (pentalgin, tetralgin, baralgin) differ little in their effect and are not effective for severe pain. I know from myself that the drug katadonol 100 mg helps a lot. One tablet helps get rid of pain for 12 hours. It can be taken for up to 2 months without consequences for the body. There is also tebantin 300 mg, but this is for very severe pain and is better if prescribed by the attending physician. All the drugs that I indicated in dispensed in pharmacies without a prescription (according to at least I bought them in Moscow without any problems).

Recently, neurologists have been very fond of prescribing Lyrica as a strong analgesic. The name confused me the first time, the medicine is available only by prescription, but the drug itself is very, very virgin. In any case, inflammation of the trigeminal nerve helped to survive

If you need to replace Ketanov due to side effects, unavailability in the pharmacy, or a doctor’s prohibition on this drug, you can purchase the following painkillers without a prescription:

  • baralgin, which will perfectly relieve pain of almost any nature, however, there is still no consensus on the side effects of this remedy, even among eminent medical scientists;
  • Dexalgin is a fast-acting medicine for toothache and pain syndromes of the musculoskeletal system, but again there are a lot of side effects.
  • bellasthesin - tablets containing belladonna extract, very effective remedy for pain in the gastrointestinal tract - however, they are contraindicated for many diseases.

Therefore, it is very difficult to decide what to replace ketans with. And before using an unknown medicine, be sure to read its detailed instructions.

Ketanov really helps a lot, but if you suddenly don’t have it or can’t get it due to lack of a prescription, then you have to look for a replacement.

In this case, we can recommend the following options: Pentalgin, Ketarol or Baralgin.

Yes, it is now extremely difficult to buy ketans without a prescription, which is why people ask this question. There are less serious painkillers, for example, ketorol. There are completely harmless ones, such as Nurofen and paracetamol.

But I don’t know that (more precisely why) ketanov was considered a good pain reliever, when I had a bad toothache, then Pentalgin helped me better than ketanov, Baralgin too powerful tool, and the substitute for Ketanov is Ketarol, I haven’t tried it yet (there was no reason), but I heard from people that it is a good remedy.

This medicine is available either in tablet form or as an injection solution.

It has a strong analgesic, anti-inflammatory and at the same time antipyretic effect. Often used in the postoperative period to relieve pain syndromes.

How to replace ketanes in its absence?

Here is a list of analogues of this drug:

Contraindicated in children under 16 years of age, pregnant and lactating women. it is also not used for chronic diseases. Use with caution in elderly people (over 65 years of age).

You can take Tempalgin or Pentalgin, they are also pain relievers.

an analogue of ketanov is ketarol, you can also inject the same ketanov and ketaroll in tablets intramuscularly. but do you know that it should not be used for more than three days - is it actually a post-operative medicine?

I take Ketorol, they act faster than Tempalgin. There is also Ketorolac, but I’ve never taken it myself.

Ketanov has a very bad effect on the heart; it is a strong drug that many use unnecessarily. It can often be replaced with regular Solpadeine or ibuprofen-based drugs at a dosage of 400 mg (Imet, Mig, etc.). If you need a substitute with a similar composition, you can buy Ketorol, Ketorolac, Dolomin or Dolak.

This is actually a very strong pain reliever. It was not given to me without a prescription; it was prescribed to my husband for a broken rib and to my daughter after surgery. They wrote out a prescription, however, for ketolong, but it was not available and I replaced it with ketanov. There is also ketalgin (Kharkov) and ketorol (India).

It is better not to use such a strong painkiller unless absolutely necessary, otherwise weaker ones will not work later.
