Description
KEROSITE-DT contains ketorolac tromethamine, a powerful nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for rapid pain relief. Its dispersible formulation allows quick absorption, making it suitable for acute moderate to severe pain—often used post-operatively or for musculoskeletal injuries when opioid analgesics are not preferred.
Clinical Uses
