Toradol (Ketorolac)
What is Toradol?
Toradol (ketorolac) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Ketorolac works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body.
Toradol is used short-term (5 days or less) to treat moderate to severe pain.
Toradol may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
Important information
You should not use Toradol if you have any active or recent bleeding (including bleeding inside your body), a head injury, a stomach ulcer, severe kidney disease, a bleeding or blood-clotting disorder, a history of severe allergic reaction to aspirin or an NSAID, or if you are scheduled to have surgery.
Do not use Toradol if you are in your third trimester of pregnancy or if you are breast-feeding a baby.
You should not use Toradol if you also take pentoxifylline, probenecid, aspirin, or other NSAID drugs (which may include ibuprofen, acetaminophen, naproxen, celecoxib, diclofenac, indomethacin, meloxicam, and others and others).
Toradol can increase your risk of fatal heart attack or stroke, especially if you use it long term or take high doses, or if you have heart disease. Do not use this medicine just before or after heart bypass surgery (coronary artery bypass graft, or CABG).
Toradol may also cause stomach or intestinal bleeding, which can be fatal. These conditions can occur without warning while you are using Toradol, especially in older adults. You should not take this medicine if you already have bleeding in your stomach or intestines.
Do not drink alcohol while taking Toradol. Alcohol can increase the risk of stomach bleeding caused by ketorolac.

How should I take Toradol?
Toradol is usually given first as an injection, and then as an oral (by mouth) medicine. The injection is given into a muscle, or into a vein through an IV. A healthcare provider will give you the injection.
Follow all directions on your prescription label. Do not take this medicine in larger amounts or for longer than recommended. Use the lowest dose that is effective in treating your condition.
Toradol should not be used for longer than 5 days, including both injection plus tablets. Long-term use of this medicine can damage your kidneys or cause bleeding.
Store at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and light. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use.
Read all patient information, medication guides, and instruction sheets provided to you. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Since Toradol is used for pain, you are not likely to miss a dose. Skip any missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not use extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222.
