Pharmacological action

Ketonal - NSAIDs, a derivative of propionic acid.

It has analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effects.

The mechanism of action is associated with inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis at the level of cyclooxygenase.

In addition, ketoprofen inhibits lipoxygenase, has anti-bradykinin activity, stabilizes lysosomal membranes, and significantly inhibits neutrophil activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

The pronounced analgesic effect of ketoprofen is due to two mechanisms: peripheral (indirectly, through suppression of prostaglandin synthesis) and central (due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis in the central and peripheral nervous system).
