Toradol is administered via intramuscular or intravenous injection. Intramuscular injections should be given deep into a large muscle. Intravenous administration requires careful monitoring by a healthcare professional. Never self-administer this injection.
Before receiving Toradol, inform your doctor about any allergies, especially to NSAIDs. Pre-existing conditions like kidney or liver disease, bleeding disorders, or a history of ulcers require careful consideration. Pregnancy and breastfeeding also necessitate discussion with your doctor.
Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, and stomach upset. More serious, though rare, side effects may include heart problems or severe allergic reactions. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience shortness of breath, swelling, or chest pain.
Toradol is a potent pain reliever; however, prolonged use carries risks. Your doctor will determine the appropriate duration of treatment. Do not continue using Toradol beyond the prescribed period.
