What Experts Say
Emergency medicine doctors reach for injectable NSAIDs like this one when a patient's pain is too severe for oral tablets to act fast enough. Renal colic and acute musculoskeletal pain are among the most common reasons this injection gets used in a hospital or clinic setting.
Anesthesiologists and surgeons often note that this injection works well as part of a broader pain control plan after an operation, rather than as the only treatment given. Combining it with other pain relief methods can lower the total NSAID dose a patient needs, which in turn reduces stomach and kidney related risks.
Nephrologists caution that this injection is not risk free for the kidneys, especially in a patient who is dehydrated or already has reduced kidney function. Proper hydration and a review of kidney function are usually recommended before repeat doses are given in a hospital setting, particularly for older patients or anyone with existing chronic kidney disease.

How to use Inflamac Injection 75mg/3ml?
- This injection is meant for administration by a doctor or trained nurse, never for self injection at home.
- A slow, deep intramuscular injection into a large muscle is the standard method of giving this medicine.
- The lowest effective dose for the shortest possible time is the usual approach for this injection.
- Repeat doses should be spaced out as advised by the treating doctor, based on how the pain responds.
- Any known allergy to NSAIDs or aspirin needs to be mentioned to the doctor before this injection is given.
Drug Interactions
- Aspirin and other NSAIDs: Combined use raises the risk of stomach bleeding without adding extra pain relief.
- Blood thinners (warfarin, heparin): The bleeding risk increases meaningfully with concurrent NSAID use.
- ACE inhibitors and ARBs: Kidney function and blood pressure control can both worsen with this combination.
- Diuretics: Reduced kidney blood flow becomes more likely when NSAIDs and diuretics are combined.
- Lithium and Methotrexate: Blood levels of both drugs can rise to unsafe amounts when combined with this injection.
Risks and warnings
- Injection Site Reaction: Pain, redness, or a small lump at the injection site is common and usually temporary.
- Kidney Function: Sudden kidney strain is a real risk, especially in dehydrated patients or those with pre-existing kidney disease.
- Stomach and Gut Risk: Ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding remain a risk even with the injectable form, not just with tablets.
- Heart and Circulation: A higher risk of heart attack and stroke exists with NSAID use, particularly in people with existing heart disease.
- Allergy History: A past severe reaction to aspirin or other NSAIDs makes a serious allergic reaction to this injection more likely.
