Ketotram Strip Of 10 Tablets Description
Ketotram is a pain-relieving medication, also known as a painkiller. It is a combination of two drugs, ketorolac (10mg) and tramadol (25mg). Ketorolac belongs to the class of drugs called non-steroid
al anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), and tramadol belongs to another class of drugs called opiates or narcotics. It is generally used in case of moderate to severe pain. It is also used for relieving cramps, fever, swelling, and inflammation. Pain is a signal that the brain sends when something is wrong in the body. Ketotram works by blocking the chemical substances and signals from the brain that are responsible for causing pain. It provides relief from pain and helps you to rest better. The effects of this medication start quickly, and it may last for a few hours. Take this medication only in the duration and the dosage the doctor has prescribed. Do not increase the dosage without consulting a doctor first. Ketotram has tramadol, which is an opiate. So, some can experience mild addictive tendencies and withdrawals if it is used for a long duration. Do not take it longer than 5 days. If the pain persists, do not try to increase the dosage and contact your doctor first.
