What is not recommended in cases of renal colic?

  1. Ibuprofen

  2. Ketorolac

  3. Co-administration of multiple NSAIDs

  4. Acetaminophen

The correct answer is: Co-administration of multiple NSAIDs

Co-administration of multiple NSAIDs is not recommended in cases of renal colic because it can increase the risk of kidney damage and other serious side effects. While both ibuprofen and ketorolac may be prescribed for pain relief, they are both NSAIDs and should not be taken together. Acetaminophen, on the other hand, is not an NSAID and may be a safer option for pain relief in cases of renal colic.
