Toradol/Pain Injections

Effective pain relief: Toradol can be very effective in relieving moderate to severe pain caused by conditions such as surgery, dental procedures, or injuries. It works by blocking chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation.

Short-term use: Toradol is typically prescribed for short periods, ranging from a few days to a week, as it can cause serious side effects if used for prolonged periods.

Can be administered in different forms: Toradol can be given intravenously (IV) in the hospital, or in the form of a tablet or injection for short-term use at home.

Safer than opioid painkillers: Toradol is a non-opioid medication, which means it has a lower risk of addiction and dependence compared to opioid painkillers like Oxycontin or Vicodin.

Can reduce the need for opioids: Studies have shown that using Toradol in combination with opioid painkillers can reduce the dose of opioids required to provide effective pain relief. This can reduce the risk of opioid-related side effects, including constipation, nausea, and respiratory depression.
