T Lac 10 mg Tablet

T Lac 10 mg Tablet is a prescription pain-relief medicine that contains ketorolac 10 mg in each tablet. Ketorolac belongs to the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) class and is used for short-term treatment of moderate to severe pain. T Lac 10 mg Tablet is not for chronic pain or long-term use, and it is typically prescribed when stronger anti-inflammatory pain relief is needed for a limited time.

How it works: Ketorolac works by blocking cyclooxygenase enzymes, which lowers prostaglandin production and helps reduce pain and inflammation. As a tablet, T Lac 10 mg Tablet is swallowed and absorbed through the digestive tract to provide short-term pain relief.

This 10 mg tablet is the oral tablet strength of ketorolac, which is often used after pain has already been assessed by a doctor and a short course is appropriate. Compared with lower oral doses, T Lac 10 mg Tablet delivers a full 10 mg per tablet, so dosing must be limited and closely followed to reduce the risk of stomach bleeding, kidney problems, and other NSAID-related harms.

• Short-term relief of moderate to severe pain
• Pain after surgery or a procedure
• Pain from injury or inflammation
• Pain when an NSAID is appropriate for brief use only

• Swallow T Lac 10 mg Tablet whole with a full glass of water.
• Take it exactly as prescribed; do not take more often or for longer than directed.
• If it upsets your stomach, it may be taken with food or milk, though taking it with food can slow the onset a little.
• Do not take it at the same time as other NSAIDs unless your prescriber specifically says to.
• Do not crush, chew, or split the tablet unless your pharmacist or doctor tells you it is safe to do so.

Each T Lac 10 mg Tablet contains 10 mg of ketorolac. The exact dose and how often you take it are determined by your doctor, but oral ketorolac is usually used only for a short course and should not be continued beyond the prescribed limit; the usual maximum oral amount is 40 mg per day. Because this is a higher-strength NSAID tablet for selected patients, your prescriber will decide whether it is appropriate based on your pain level, age, kidney function, and bleeding risk.

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