oxycodone is a narcotic and an opiate based drug. ketorolac is an anti-inflammatory without steroids. ketorolac is usually prescribed in conjunction with another drug to work well, and is just a short term drug. hope that helps
I guess it sort of depends on why or what you are taking this medication for? In general, the Oxycodone/325 is far stronger as it is a Narcotic medication mixed with Tylenol, the Ketorolac is classified as a NSAID, or anti inflammatory medication, that typically helps with joint pain, sort of like taking Ibuprofen over the counter only stronger.
