Drug info - Ketahob (Ketorolac)... any Russians here?

[Aopocetx]

I have a package of a few pills labeled Ketahob. I am assuming this is from Russia. The little information I found says it's a painkiller. I'm hoping it's an opiate. Does anyone know what these are?

Ketahob = ketorolac tromethamine = a powerful non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug with no recreational value and some nasty side effects.
