What is Toradol?
Toradol, also known by its generic name Ketorolac, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for short-term relief of mild to moderate pain. It works by reducing inflammation and blocking the production of certain natural substances that cause pain and swelling.

Benefits of Toradol Injections
-
Effective Pain Relief: Toradol is highly effective in providing rapid relief from mild to moderate pain, such as dental pain, or pain from injuries.
​
-
Reduces Inflammation: As an NSAID, Toradol helps reduce inflammation, swelling, and stiffness associated with various conditions.
​
-
Quick Onset of Action: When administered via injection, Toradol works quickly to alleviate pain, providing relief within a short period.
​
-
Well-Tolerated: When used appropriately and for short durations, Toradol is generally well-tolerated. It may be preferred over opioid medications for pain management due to its lower risk of addiction and respiratory depression.
​
Why Choose Toradol Injections?
While Toradol is available in oral form, injections offer a rapid and reliable method of delivery, particularly beneficial for patients who require immediate pain relief or those unable to take oral medications. Intramuscular injections or IV administration ensures direct absorption into the bloodstream, allowing for quick and effective pain relief.
​
Is Toradol Injection Right for You?
Toradol injections are beneficial for individuals experiencing mild to moderate pain, particularly after injury or dental procedures. They provide effective pain relief without the sedating effects of opioid medications, making them suitable for use in outpatient settings like our IV vitamin infusion and injection spa.
