Can we take ketorol dt during pregnancy?

Question

I had really bad back pain and someone at home offered me this but i didnt take it without checking. Im 4 months pregnant and dont want to risk anything. Will confirm with my doctor but is this generally ok or no?

Don't take it without asking. Call your gynac for a safe option.

Please dont take this kind of painkiller on your own during pregnancy, that group of meds isnt advised especially later on. I had pains too but always asked my gynac before taking anything. Do call your doctor and ask before this one.

Honestly I wouldnt take it without checking, NSAID type painkillers can be a concern in pregnancy. For my headaches the doctor told me which specific medicine was safe. Please dont self medicate, just ask your gynac what you can take.

From what I know, that category of painkiller is generally avoided in pregnancy, doctors usually suggest paracetamol for pain instead. But the dose and choice should come from your own gynac. Dont take it on your own please, just confirm first.
