Ketoprofen reduces the effect of diuretics, antihypertensive agents.

It enhances the effect of oral hypoglycemic drugs.

Accelerates the effect of some anticonvulsants (e.g., phenytoin).

Concomitant use with other NSAIDs, salicylates, GCS and ethanol increases the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.

Concomitant use with anticoagulants, thrombolytics, antiaggregants increases the risk of bleeding.

The risk of renal dysfunction increases with concomitant use of diuretics or ACE inhibitors.

Concomitant use increases concentrations of cardiac glycosides, slow calcium channel blockers, lithium preparations, cyclosporine, methotrexate.

Ketoprofen may decrease the effectiveness of mifepristone. NSAIDs should not be started before 8-12 days after withdrawal of mifepristone.

Special Instructions

Ketonal may be washed with milk or taken with antacids in order to reduce the frequency of gastrointestinal disorders (milk and antacids do not affect absorption of ketoprofen).

When prolonged use of NSAIDs, the blood count and hepatic and renal function should be monitored, especially in elderly patients.

Caution should be exercised and BP should be monitored more frequently when using ketoprofen to treat patients with arterial hypertension, cardiovascular disease, which leads to fluid retention.

Like other NSAIDs, ketoprofen can mask the symptoms of infectious diseases.
