A friend has been taking Biprofenid 150 mg one a day for 3 days and now his urine is red. Is this normal? ## HI, Cathy! Has he consulted his doctor? He should do so immediately, that could be due to blood in the urine, which means there may be internal bleeding somewhere. Bi-Profenid contains the active ingredient Ketoprofen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and it can cause stomach ulceration and an increased risk of bleeding as possible side effects.

The most common side effect is irritation of the area where it's been applied. You can learn more Ketoprofen details here and there are more Lidocaine details here. However, I don't know what the other inactive ingredients are, since it's compounded as you stated and that can vary from pharmacy to pharmacy. Have you asked them?

Can anyone tell me what the US equivalent to Enantyum would be. I had dental surgery in Guatemala and was given 25mg tablets but running out. I'm hoping not to need them but want to keep my options open. ## Hi Jackie, Based on my research, Enantyum contains Dexketoprofen. I've read that ketoprofen would most likely be the equivalent in US. Ketoprofen is in a group of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Ketoprofen works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Ketoprofen Details I hope this helps!

Moved from Alabama to Kansas and cannot get keprocaine cream in Kansas. Any suggestions on where I could purchase cream. My Dr. will write a presc. but it is not good in Alabama and the Lab in AL. does not accept a Kansas prescription. Open to anyone that can solve my delima. Thanks, Dee ## Are there any compounding pharmacies in your area? If so, then your doctor could write a prescription for it by the active ingredients and the pharmacy can actually make it for you. I am not sure, however, if your insurance would cover it, or not. That depends on the type of insurance you have. Keprocaine contains Ketoprofen, Baclofen and Cyclobenzaprine, so it combines a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory with 2 types of muscle relaxants. Learn more Ketoprofen details here. Learn more Baclofen details h...

is keprocaine cream good for knee pain and inflamation ## Please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what little bit of information I could gather, Keprocaine cream is a topical pain cream with the following active ingredients: Ketoprofen - nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug Baclofen - used to treat muscle spasms and tightness Cyclobenzaprine - skeletal muscle relaxant Lidocaine - local anesthetic With that said, I do believe it could be beneficial for knee pain and inflammation. Additionally, I would also highly recommend looking into "hyaluronic acid injections" for knee pain, as I've heard some great things about its effectiveness. I hope this helps!

had stomach ulcers maybe 15 years ago will it be ok if i take omeprazol for protection to my stomach & taking enantyum ? ## Enantyum contains the active ingredient Ketoprofen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that is used to reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach to treat or prevent conditions, such as heartburn, GERD and ulcers. There are no interactions listed between the two, but you may want to check with your doctor or pharmacist to be certain. However, many doctors prescribe these types of stomach medications right along with NSAIDs, when someone has a prior history of gastric issues, to prevent the damage that the NSAIDs can cause. Is there anything else I can help with? ## thank you for your reply very helpful
