Ketofen® is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) indicated for use in horses and cattle to manage pain and inflammation associated with musculoskeletal disorders and acute soft tissue injuries. It helps reduce swelling and discomfort, supporting improved mobility and comfort in affected animals.
In horses, Ketofen® is used for conditions such as musculoskeletal pain, post-surgical inflammation, and soft tissue injuries. In cattle, it is indicated to control inflammation and pyrexia associated with bovine respiratory disease and other acute inflammatory conditions.
Ketofen® should be administered under veterinary guidance, with dosage based on the animal's species, weight, and condition. Proper use helps manage pain and inflammation safely and effectively in equine and bovine patients.
Intra-arterial injection should be avoided.
Do not use in a horse if it has previously shown hypersensitivity to ketoprofen.
Do not use in horses intended for human consumption.
This product should not be used in breeding animals since the effects of KETOFEN on fertility, pregnancy or fetal health in horses have not been determined.
As a class, cyclo-oxygenase inhibitory NSAIDs may be associated with gastrointestinal, renal, and hepatic toxicity. Sensitivity to drug-associated adverse events varies with the individual patient. Consider stopping therapy if adverse reactions, such as prolonged inappetence or abnormal feces, could be attributed to gastrointestinal toxicity. Patients at greatest risk for adverse events are those that are dehydrated, on diuretic therapy, or those with existing renal, cardiovascular, and/or hepatic dysfunction. Concurrent administration of potentially nephrotoxic drugs should be carefully approached. Since many NSAIDs possess the potential to produce gastrointestinal ulcerations and/or gastrointestinal perforation, concomitant use of ketoprofen with other anti-inflammatory drugs, such as NSAIDs or corticosteroids, should be avoided or closely monitored.
During investigational studies, no significant side effects were reported.

Disposal of Medical Sharps
- When you're finished with the syringe and needle, do not try to recap, remove, bend or break the needle. This is where most injuries occur.
- Dispose the syringe and needle immediately in a nearby sharps container. All sharps must be deposited in a puncture-proof container. Make sure your storage location is child and animal proof.
- As with all product handling, make sure you wash your hands after handling medical sharps.
Disposal of Sharps Container
- When your sharps container is half-full, sift dry Portland Cement throughout the sharps. Fill the container with water, and rotate until the cement is mixed and the sharps have been distributed throughout the cement mixture. Let cement dry for 24 hours.
- Seal the lid of the container tightly and use duct tape to seal. Label the container "Livestock Sharps" to properly identify the contents.
- Dispose of the containers in accordance with your state's regulations.
