I had what was found to be an upper back inflammation, with a great deal of pain. It was first thought that I was having a heart attack or an embolism. As morphine-related medicines make me sick (nausea and headache), they gave me Toradol injections while I was in the hospital (for 24 hours) and it knocked the pain better than anything I had taken up to that point. I still had a little pain but it was tolerable, and this medicine didn't make me sick. I would recommend it especially for those who can't take narcotic pain relievers. Don't know about the oral dose as I didn't get that, just injections through an IV.

I was given Toradol via IV in the ER to relieve pain from kidney stone attack and it worked wonders for me! It made the pain go away completely within about 20 minutes and didn't make me feel doped up or sick to my stomach. I also didn't experience any side effects from it.

I had excruciating pain in my left arm. They gave me a shot of morphine which did not relieve it at all. They then decided to give me Toradol through an IV site. It was the only thing that took the pain away. It's excellent.

Had complications from rectal surgery resulting in 3 surgeries in as many weeks. Very painful. This med helped inflammation, which was good, but was light on the pain relief -- and kept me awake at night.
