Non-opioid pain management was a huge topic at AAOS, as was the
wave of drug shortages. Nephron stepped up with a solution that
addresses both issues. The nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory pain man-
agement drug Ketorolac, compelling as an alternative to opioids, is
currently in short supply. Nephron, through its 503B outsourcing facili-
ty, says it can more speedily provide the drug thanks to its "rapid sterili-
ty" equipment. Perhaps more compellingly, the drug is delivered in a
plastic vial, as opposed to glass. No needle is required; the product can
be drawn up using a luer-lock syringe that also reduces leakage and
splatter.
