NS Aid K Eye Drop

NS Aid K Eye Drop contains ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in the eye. Each drop delivers the labeled strength of ketorolac in sterile ophthalmic solution form. NS Aid K Eye Drop is used to help reduce eye pain, swelling, and inflammation, especially after eye surgery or with certain allergic or inflammatory eye conditions. It works locally in the eye rather than as a pill or injection.

How it works: Ketorolac blocks the body’s prostaglandins, which are chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation. In eye-drop form, NS Aid K Eye Drop acts directly on the eye to help calm redness, swelling, and discomfort.

Because NS Aid K Eye Drop is an eye-drop formulation, it is chosen for direct treatment of the eye surface and usually starts working where it is placed rather than through the whole body. There are no other strengths or forms of this brand listed here, so this product fits the standard ophthalmic ketorolac dosing that a doctor may select when local anti-inflammatory treatment is needed.

• Post-surgical eye inflammation
• Eye pain and irritation
• Allergic or inflammatory eye symptoms
• Reduction of swelling in the eye
• Short-term ophthalmic anti-inflammatory treatment

• Wash your hands before using NS Aid K Eye Drop.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye.
• Do not touch the dropper tip to your eye, fingers, or any surface.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 minutes between products unless your doctor says otherwise.
• Remove soft contact lenses before use and only put them back in when your doctor says it is safe.
• Use NS Aid K Eye Drop exactly on the schedule your doctor gives you; do not use extra drops to make it work faster.

Each drop of NS Aid K Eye Drop contains the labeled ketorolac strength in sterile ophthalmic solution form. The exact number of drops and how often to use them depends on the reason for treatment and your doctor’s instructions; eye-drop ketorolac is commonly used several times a day, but the prescriber decides the schedule and duration. Do not increase the frequency or use it longer than directed, because eye NSAID use should be limited to the prescribed course.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Ketorolac may include:

• Temporary burning or stinging after instillation
• Mild eye irritation
• Itching or watery eyes
• Blurred vision right after use
• Redness or discomfort in the eye
• Sensitivity to light

• Use NS Aid K Eye Drop only in the eye as directed; do not swallow it.
• Tell your doctor if you have asthma, aspirin sensitivity, bleeding problems, stomach ulcers, kidney disease, or a history of NSAID allergy.
• Stop using contact lenses if your eye doctor instructs you to during treatment.
• Use caution if you are also taking blood thinners or other NSAIDs, since ketorolac can increase bleeding risk.
• Do not use longer or more often than prescribed, especially after eye surgery, because overuse may raise the risk of healing problems.
• Avoid driving or operating machinery right after use if your vision is blurred.
• Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breastfeeding before using this eye drop.

• Other NSAIDs such as ibuprofen, naproxen, or aspirin
• Blood thinners such as warfarin, apixaban, or rivaroxaban
• Antiplatelet medicines such as clopidogrel
• Other eye drops or ophthalmic medicines, especially if given at the same time
• Steroid medicines, if your eye doctor is monitoring healing and inflammation closely
