Medicine Description orudis 100mg
Orudis 100 mg 3 ampoules is a medication that contains ketoprofen, which acts as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Ketoprofen exerts its therapeutic effects primarily through the inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, leading to a reduction in the synthesis of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are lipid compounds that play a key role in mediating pain, inflammation, and fever. By decreasing the levels of these chemicals, Orudis helps alleviate pain and reduce inflammatory responses in various tissues. This mechanism not only provides symptomatic relief but also improves functional mobility in patients experiencing musculoskeletal disorders.
