Ketorol SP Tablet

Ketorol SP Tablet is a combination medicine designed to relieve pain and reduce swelling. It is often prescribed for painful joint and muscle conditions such as osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as for post-surgical pain. By combining pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory agents with an enzyme that supports tissue recovery, it provides effective short-term relief.

How to take
The medicine should always be taken in the exact dose and duration recommended by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with water, preferably after a meal or with milk to protect the stomach. Taking it regularly at the same times each day helps improve its effectiveness. Do not stop the treatment unless advised by your healthcare provider.

Possible side effects
Some people may notice digestive problems such as nausea, stomach upset, heartburn, indigestion, diarrhea, or reduced appetite. Dizziness, drowsiness, and mild changes in liver enzyme levels can also occur. In long-term use, there may be risks of stomach bleeding, kidney strain, or liver complications, which is why doctors may recommend periodic tests to check organ function. Pregnant and breastfeeding women are generally advised not to use this medicine unless specifically directed.

Uses

• Relief from pain and inflammation

• Support in joint and muscle disorders

• Assistance in postoperative pain management

Benefits
This tablet combines three active ingredients. Aceclofenac and Paracetamol act to ease pain, reduce fever, and control inflammation by limiting the action of certain body chemicals. Serratiopeptidase, an enzyme, helps break down abnormal proteins at the site of injury or swelling, promoting faster recovery and healing. Together, they not only reduce discomfort but also support better mobility and quality of life.

How it works
The medicine reduces the signals in the body that trigger pain and inflammation while also aiding in the breakdown of inflamed tissue proteins. This dual action helps manage discomfort and speeds up the healing process.
