INDICATIONS

Toradol is indicated for the short-term ( ≤ 5 days) management of moderately severe acute pain that requires analgesia at the opioid level, usually in a postoperative setting. It is used alone or in combination with other medicines. This medication is not for treating minor aches and pains.

Toradol is in a group of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain in the body.

INSTRUCTIONS

Take Toradol exactly as it was prescribed for you.

  • Do not take the medication in larger amounts, or take it for longer than recommended by your doctor.
  • The tablet should be taken with a full glass of water.
  • Toradol is normally given for 5 days or less.
  • Long-term use of Toradol can damage your kidneys or cause bleeding.
  • If you need to have any type of surgery, tell the surgeon ahead of time if you have recently used this medication.
  • If you miss a dose of Toradol and you are using it regularly, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Toradol.

STORAGE

Some medical conditions may interact with Toradol. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

  • if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances

Some medicines may interact with Toradol. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Toradol may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

Important safety information:

  • Toradol may cause drowsiness or dizziness. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Toradol with caution. Do not drive or perform other possible unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it.
  • Serious stomach ulcers or bleeding can occur with the use of Toradol. Taking it in high doses or for a long time, smoking, or drinking alcohol increases the risk of these side effects. Taking Toradol with food will NOT reduce the risk of these effects. Contact your doctor or emergency room at once if you develop severe stomach or back pain; black, tarry stools; vomit that looks like blood or coffee grounds; or unusual weight gain or swelling.
  • Do NOT take more than the recommended dose or use for longer than prescribed without checking with your doctor.
  • Toradol is an NSAID. Before you start any new medicine, check the label to see if it has an NSAID (eg, ibuprofen) in it too. If it does or if you are not sure, check with your doctor or pharmacist.
  • Do not take aspirin while you are using Toradol unless your doctor tells you to.
  • Check with your doctor or pharmacist before you take acetaminophen while you are taking Toradol. The risk of liver problems may be increased.
  • Lab tests, including kidney function, liver function, blood electrolyte levels, complete blood cell counts, and blood pressure, may be performed while you use Toradol. These tests may be used to monitor your condition or check for side effects. Be sure to keep all doctor and lab appointments.
  • Use Toradol with caution in the elderly; they may be more sensitive to its effects, especially stomach bleeding and kidney problems.
  • Toradol should not be used in children younger 16 years; safety and effectiveness in these children have not been confirmed.
  • Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Toradol may cause harm to the fetus. Do not use it during the last 3 months of pregnancy. If you think you may be pregnant, contact your doctor. You will need to discuss the benefits and risks of using Toradol while you are pregnant. Toradol is found in breast milk. Do not breastfeed while taking Toradol.
