MEDICATION GUIDE FOR NON-STEROIDAL
ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS (NSAIDS)
What is the most important information I should know about medicines
called Non-Steroidal Anti-
Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)?
NSAIDs can cause serious side effects, including:
• Increased risk of a heart attack or stroke that can lead to death.
This risk may happen early in treatment
and may increase:•with increasing doses of NSAIDs•with longer use
of NSAIDs
Do not take NSAIDs right before or after a heart surgery called a
"coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)."
Avoid taking NSAIDs after a recent heart attack, unless your
healthcare provider tells you to. You may
have an increased risk of another heart attack if you take NSAIDs
after a recent heart attack.
• Increased risk of bleeding, ulcers, and tears (perforation) of the
esophagus (tube leading from the mouth
to the stomach), stomach and intestines:•anytime during
use•without warning symptoms•that may cause
death
The risk of getting an ulcer or bleeding increases with:
• past history of stomach ulcers, • increasing doses of NSAIDs
or stomach or intestinal • longer use of NSAIDs
bleeding with the use of • smoking
NSAIDs • drinking alcohol
• taking medicines called • older age
"corticosteroids", • poor health

Rx only
WARNING
Ketorolac tromethamine, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID),
is
indicated for the short-term (up to 5 days in adults) management of
moderately
severe acute pain that requires analgesia at the opioid level. Oral
ketorolac
tromethamine is indicated only as continuation treatment following
intravenous or
intramuscular dosing of ketorolac tromethamine, if necessary. The
total combined
duration of use of oral ketorolac tromethamine and ketorolac
tromethamine
injection should not exceed 5 days.
KETOROLAC TROMETHAMINE IS NOT INDICATED FOR USE IN PEDIATRIC PATIENTS
AND
IT IS NOT INDICATED FOR MINOR OR CHRONIC PAINFUL CONDITIONS.
INCREASING THE
DOSE OF KETOROLAC TROMETHAMINE BEYOND THE LABEL RECOMMENDATIONS WILL
NOT PROVIDE BETTER EFFICACY BUT WILL INCREASE THE RISK OF DEVELOPING
SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS.
GASTROINTESTINAL RISK
Ketorolac tromethamine can cause peptic ulcers, gastrointestinal
bleeding
and/or perforation of the stomach or intestines, which can be fatal.
These
events can occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms.
Therefore, ketorolac tromethamine is CONTRAINDICATED in patients with
active
peptic ulcer disease, in patients with recent gastrointestinal
bleeding or
perforation, and in patients with a history of peptic ulcer disease or
gastrointestinal bleeding. Elderly patients are at greater risk for
serious
gastrointestinal events (see WARNINGS).
CARDIOVASCULAR THROMBOTIC EVENTS
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) cause an increased risk
of
serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial
infarction and
stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may occur early in treatment and
may
increase with duration of use (see WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS).
Ketorolac tromethamine is CONTRAINDICATED in the setting of coronary
artery
bypass graft (CABG) surgery (see CONTRAINDICATIONS and WARNINGS).
