[Ketoprofen (ketonal): a drug for preventing and treating postoperative pain].
A prophylactic approach to the management of postoperative pain is described: ketoprofen, a nonsteroid antiinflammatory drug, was used, which possesses numerous advantages and a variety of dosage forms. To cancer patients subjected to extensive radical operations on the pelvic organs, head, and neck, ketonal (ketoprofen) was injected intramuscularly or rectally in a dose of 100 mg 1 h before surgery and in a daily dose of 300 mg during the postoperative period. Adequate postoperative monoanalgesia with ketonal was attained in 47% patients. In the rest patients ketonal was combined with medium-potent opioid tramadol. A more potent opioid buprenorfin (sangesik) in the minimal daily dose of 0.3 mg was required in only 2 cases. Nonsteroid antiinflammatory drug ketoprofen (ketonal) in therapeutic doses administered preventively before surgery intramuscularly or rectally notably decreased the acuity of the postoperative pain syndrome.
