Adolor 30 Mg Ampoules
Description:
Adolor 30 mg ampoules are a prescription-only injectable non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) containing ketorolac tromethamine. They are used for the short-term management of moderate to severe acute pain, typically in a hospital or clinical setting, when oral analgesics are not suitable or insufficient. Adolor provides strong analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, helping to relieve post-operative pain, trauma-related pain, and other acute painful conditions under medical supervision.
Indications:
- Short-term management of moderate to severe acute pain in adults.
- Post-operative pain (e.g., after surgical procedures) when parenteral NSAID therapy is indicated.
- Acute musculoskeletal pain, trauma-related pain, and renal colic, as assessed by a physician.
- Situations where rapid onset injectable analgesia is required and oral therapy is not appropriate.
Active Ingredients / Key Components:
- Ketorolac tromethamine – 30 mg per ampoule (concentration of ketorolac in mg/ml is not specified in available data).
- Inactive ingredients/excipients: Specific excipients , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.
Dosage & Administration / How to Use:
- Adolor 30 mg ampoules are for intramuscular (im) or intravenous (iv) use only and must be administered by a healthcare professional.
- Typical adult dose: commonly 10–30 mg every 4–6 hours as needed, not exceeding the maximum daily dose and maximum duration recommended by the prescribing information. Exact dosing regimen must be determined by the physician.
- Maximum duration of treatment is generally short term (often not more than 5 days) due to the risk of serious adverse effects with prolonged use. Follow your doctor’s instructions strictly.
- Not recommended for use in children unless specifically directed by a specialist and according to local guidelines.
- Do not self-inject. Use only in a clinical or supervised setting where monitoring for side effects and interactions is possible.
- Do not mix in the same syringe with other injectable drugs unless compatibility is confirmed by the healthcare provider.
Clinical Benefits:
- Provides strong analgesic effect comparable to some opioid analgesics for short-term relief of moderate to severe pain.
- Reduces inflammation by inhibiting cyclo-oxygenase (cox) enzymes and decreasing prostaglandin synthesis at the site of inflammation.
- Helps lower fever (antipyretic effect) associated with inflammatory conditions.
- Offers a non-opioid alternative for acute pain management, potentially reducing the need for opioid medications in suitable patients.
- Rapid onset of action via im or iv administration, making it suitable for post-operative and emergency pain control under medical supervision.
Warnings & Contraindications:
- Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to ketorolac, other NSAIDs, or any component of the formulation.
- Contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcer, recent gastrointestinal bleeding or perforation, or history of recurrent peptic ulcer/gi bleeding.
- Contraindicated in severe renal impairment and in patients at risk of renal failure due to volume depletion.
- Contraindicated in patients with severe heart failure, active bleeding, hemorrhagic diathesis, or those receiving high-dose anticoagulant therapy.
- Should not be used in labor, during childbirth, or in late pregnancy due to risk to the fetus and interference with labor.
- Use with caution in elderly patients, those with mild to moderate renal or hepatic impairment, hypertension, heart disease, fluid retention, or a history of gastrointestinal disease.
- Drug interactions: may prolong prothrombin time when used with anticoagulants; may impair antihypertensive effect of beta blockers; may increase nephrotoxicity when combined with cyclosporine; may increase serum lithium levels and risk of lithium toxicity.
- Avoid concurrent use with other NSAIDs, including high-dose aspirin, unless specifically directed by a physician.
- Alcohol consumption may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding and should be avoided.
- Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, taking medications, or have medical conditions such as kidney disease, liver disease, heart disease, bleeding disorders, or gastrointestinal problems.
- Not intended for self-medication or long-term use. Use strictly as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
- Keep out of reach of children.
Side Effects:
- Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, indigestion, diarrhea, constipation, dizziness, headache, and injection site pain.
- Serious side effects can include gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration, severe abdominal pain, black or bloody stools, vomiting blood, severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling of face or throat, difficulty breathing), kidney problems (reduced urine output, swelling, fatigue), liver dysfunction (yellowing of skin or eyes, dark urine), and severe skin reactions.
