I have exactly the same problem. Congenital hip dysplasia now 63 years later I would like to avoid hip replacement. This helps me get through everyday efforts. We need this.

They told me it was going back on the market at the end of July so I called and now they are saying the same BULLS*** they were saying before. (they don't know when it will be released).

It still doesn't seem like it's back on the market yet. I had seen earlier that they had a recall because of penicillin being mixed with it. I am really hurting today and nothing works like it did.

I finally got through to a good person at Teva. (the company that makes ketoprofen). They have fixed the problem and it will be back on the market at the end of July.

Good news - I finally got the right person on the phone at Teva and they did some checking for me and to make a long story short, Ketoprofen will be released at the end of July.

I have been trying to find out the same thing. I can't live without it. I have called everyone but nobody seems to know what the problem is. Teva keeps lying to me and saying just a few more weeks but then never delivers. I just called again this morning and got the same answer. They must be planning on not making it anymore and for some stupid reason won't even tell you that.

Hi. Yeah, I've had the same problem. My pharmacy says that their suppliers can't get ketoprofen. The Pharmacist can't get any answers as to why ketoprofen isn't available either. I am allergic to opiates, and other NSAIDs I've tried don't work anywhere as effectively as ketoprofen. So, this is a real problem for me.

I would really appreciate any information as to what is going on. Thanks.

Hello, Cricket! How are you?

What reason are they giving you for not filling it?

Ketoprofen is classified by the FDA as being a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that's used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation.
