Compare Toradol to Darvon for moderate to severe pain relief?

Answers (1)

I didn't think anyone used these two drugs anymore as both are ineffective. Darvon is propoxyphene which is the weakest opiate and it has been shown in tests that extra strength tylenol is a more effective pain reliever.
Toradol is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and is used for mild to moderate pain like post operative pain ect. When used by mouth it is quite ineffective and is usually ordered along with morphine.
When administered I.V. by a professional is can be quite effective..Hope this helps... Dave
