toradol injection
Toradol (generic name ketorolac)
Toradol is a powerful prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for the short-term treatment of moderate to severe acute pain.
What It Does
- Pain Relief: It targets moderate-to-severe pain, often following surgery, or for acute conditions like joint injury, kidney stones and severe migraines.
- Mechanism: It blocks the body's production of prostaglandins, chemicals that cause pain and inflammation.
- Non-Narcotic: It is not an opioid, meaning it does not cause dependency, addiction, or heavy sedation.
Important Safety Risks
- Bleeding: It can cause severe, potentially fatal stomach or intestinal bleeding.
- Kidney Damage: Long-term or high-dose use can harm kidney function.
- Restrictions: You should not take it if you have active bleeding, kidney disease, a history of stomach ulcers, or if you are about to have surgery.
- Short-Term Only: Total treatment—combining injections and pills—must not exceed 5 days.
