Details

Benefits:

  • Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) that decreases inflammation.
  • often used to decrease inflammation and pain after eye surgeries and for pets with cataracts
  • To treat or prevent inflammatory conditions involving the eye, conjunctiva, and eyelids

 

Ketorolac Opthalmic Solution is a non steroidal anti inflammatory that can be used to treat:

  • certain types of anterior uveitis and iritis.
  • control of chronic uveitis where long-term topical corticosteroids may be detrimental.
  • It is also given as a pre-operative and post-operative anti-inflammatory medication
  • Ketorolac is widely used for treating seasonal allergic conjunctivitis in people and may have similar benefits in dogs and cats.

Caution: 

While generally safe and effective, Ketorolac should not be used in animals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to the medication or to topical or systemic NSAIDs. Ketorolac should not be used in the presence of eye hemorrhage or clotting as there is the potential for increased bleeding due to it's effect on platelet aggregation. It can potentially increase bleeding tendencies during eye surgery when used preoperatively. 

The concurrent use of topical NSAIDs with topical corticosteroids has been identified as a risk factor in humans for precipitating corneal problems.
