What is ketorolac made of?
Ketorolac is the generic name for ketorolac tromethamine, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It is formulated as the active ingredient ketorolac tromethamine plus other inactive ingredients that depend on the specific product (tablet, injection, or eye/other formulation).
What form of ketorolac are you asking about?
“Ketorolac” can refer to different dosage forms, and the non-active ingredients differ by product. The active drug in all cases is ketorolac tromethamine.
What are the inactive ingredients (excipients)?
The inactive ingredients are not the same across all ketorolac products. They can include things like fillers, binders, preservatives, and solutions used to deliver the medicine (especially for injections). To list the exact “what is in it,” you need the specific brand and formulation (for example, ketorolac tablets vs ketorolac injection) and the strength.
If you tell me the country and the label form/strength (e.g., “10 mg tablet” or “30 mg/mL injection”), I can help you identify the exact components typically listed on that product’s label.
Why does “ketorolac” sometimes show up without “tromethamine”?
Some labels or conversations shorten the name to “ketorolac,” but the full active ingredient name in most ketorolac products is ketorolac tromethamine.
