"I have used this for 30 yrs off and on. I first started using for my migraines back when I was 30 years old. Then I realized it worked good for menstrual cramps. Then as I got older I used it for my osteoarthritis. Now that I am 60 years old. It helps me for everything! My arthritis, my knee, my fibromyalgia. I have used other non steroid anti- inflammatory medications but they just do not seem to work as good as Ketoprophen! I can count to the minute how long it takes for it to work! This is a life saver medication for me!"

Orudis KT (ketoprofen) "It's unfortunate this pain reliever has been removed from over the counter use. It was one of a very few that actually helped my pain from thrombic angiitis obliterans. It also helped my brother and 2 sisters with migraines. In my view it is much like ibuprofen except slightly stronger and much more effective."

"I was in Italy and suddenly got mind blowing painful infection around an out-coming wisdoms-tooth. Doctors gave me 600mg of Ibuprofen, which did virtually nothing for me, but one serving of OKi 80mg (50mg Ketoprofen) almost relieved it completely!(98%).. amazing! Truely great product!!!"

"I used to take Anacin for my sinus and muscle pain, until I found out it contained caffeine. Nothing else works as good .I have had severe sinusitis since I was 8 yrs old .I am now 62 and it is still working for me. I take the 50 mg. capsule and it works for at least a day or more."

"A few months ago, I started getting migraines while on my period due to a change in birth control. I love my new method and did not want to stop it, so I brought up the issue of the migraines to my provider. I've tried other NSAIDS such as regular acetaminophen and even tried Excedrin Migraine, but acetaminophen did not put even a dent into it. Excedrin Migraine only worked for 4-5 hours and then it would come back full force sometimes worse. My provider wrote me out for 50mg of ketoprofen, and I take 2 capsules at the onset of a migraine. This NSAID works great. My migraine was gone within an hour, and instead of being bedridden with ice packs on my head, I was actually able to eat and return to my normal activity. It is a God send!"

"Ketoprofen is great for acute tooth ache and gum swelling. So thankful that it exists!! I took 100mg 1 hour later I felt much better. It really helped through the weekend. The pharmacist gave paracetamol but that thing never worked. never ever!!"

Oruvail (ketoprofen) "Was taking it for chronic pain and it worked wonders. Went from taking Ibuprofen 600s up to 3x a day to just one Oruvail a day, and I was almost pain-free. Sadly, I was getting it from an overseas online pharmacy and can't afford it anymore. If not for costs (and it apparently not being a thing in the USA?), I'd still be taking it."

"I was taking ibuprofen 800mg 3 times daily for knee pain until after a few months, I developed stomach ulcers. Then after several months still in pain, I found Ketoprofen over the counter at 12.5mg and gave it a try. Taking only 2 tabs daily, I was surprised at how effective it was. It wasn't long that I only needed an occasional tab. Then I could no longer find it OTC and reverted to aspirin that isn't as effective as this and it's better than ibuprofen and other painkillers. Please make it available OTC again."

"I use this medication for the herniated disc in my neck. Severe pain went down my right arm. Couldn't deal with it, but ketoprofen made 95 to 100% of pain go away. Great stuff."

Orudis (ketoprofen) "I have taken this product for headaches, backaches, and toothaches, and having tried Motrin, Extra Strength Tylenol, and Aleve for these issues in the past, I would give Orudis KT the highest rating of the OTC pain medications."
