Definition
Orudis KT is an over-the-counter (OTC) formulation of ketoprofen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It's designed for temporary relief of minor aches and pains. Unlike prescription-strength Orudis, Orudis KT can be purchased without a doctor's note. It works by reducing hormones that cause pain and swelling in the body. Think of it as a weaker version of prescription Orudis. It is self-treatable pain relief.
