Ketorolac tromethamine salt (RS37619 tromethamine salt) is a non-selective COX inhibitor with IC50 of 31.5 µM and 60.5 µM for human recombinant COX-1 and COX-2, respectively. Ketorolac tromethamine is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) in the family of heterocyclic acetic acid derivative, often used as an analgesic, antipyretic (fever reducer), and anti-inflammatory. Ketorolac tromethamine (Toradol) acts by inhibiting the bodily synthesis of prostaglandins. The primary mechanism of action responsible for ketorolac’s anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic effects is the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis by competitive blocking of the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX).
