| 1 | Chest wall pain at ER | Went to ER with chest pain, work up was negative for anything serious. Gave me toradol through IV and felt okay right away, an hour later having extremely horrible very low pelvic cramping. Leg muscle pain and feel hot. The cramping is intense and horrible.

Facial flushing and feeling sick | Would never recommend this to anyone. I trusted my surgeon but after how I felt and reading the extremely scary warnings- I will never take this again! | F | 39 | 1 days 10 mg 2X day | 6/22/2023 | 1 | Ovarian cyst rupture pain | I received an IV of Toradol in the hospital and then took 10 mg orally that night before bed. It helped my pain. I felt fine until the next day. That's when the side effects started- severe headache that is very persistent, weird taste in my mouth, grogginess, anxiety, and depression. None of these things are normal for me. The headache and grogginess have been the worst side effects. I had toradol through IV the first afternoon, then an oral tablet that night, and then 10 mg for 2 nights after that. I haven't even had any more toradol since 3 days ago but I still feel like crap. | F | 32 | 3 days 10 mg 1X day | 11/14/2021 | 1 | Acute pain | I can't imagine why they would prescribe this crap , it's just as dangerous as ibuprofen I take enough of that so why would you use this drug with so many bad side effects it's just not that effective to chance the BAD SIDE EFFECTS ITS NOT FOR ME!! | F | 63 | 1 days Injection 1X M | 10/22/2021 | 1 | Fell and hurt shoulder | Torodol injection. An hour or two post injection I started having awful stomach cramping that was eventually accompanied by the feeling of extreme gas in my stomach. It has now been 24 hours and I am still experiencing these side effects. I received a smaller dose about 2 years ago for an injury and had no side effects, so I thought I would be fine. I was very very wrong. I will not except this injection again. My stomach cramps are not worth it. | F | 37 | 1 days 60 MG 1X day | 10/3/2021 | 1 | Migraine | Been given this drug via iv once when I was age 63 and now at 65 back then I was warned and I quote " it might make you a little anxious" my behind , I was bouncing off the walls with anxiety so much I was ready to pull the iv lines out of my arm and yelling bc I needed help! Flesh forward I'm in the ER again w headaches and this nurse says we're going to give you a cocktail , cocktail ! The cocktail include toradol and another drug to take the edge off of the side effects of if ( I guess by now they knew how terrible this drug is ) yet they still want to give it to me,and to you SMH and it didn't take a New York minute for me to demand that they unhook the IV drip bc again there was the sudden high anxiety and nervous feeling I get when taking this drug..they need to ban this drug!!!! | M | 65 | 1 days Unknown 1X day | 8/19/2021 | 1 | Head/neck pain after fall | Severe stomach pain,vomiting, black stools | I asked not to be given this drug as I had a bad experience prior. Was told there was “no way” I could have such a bad reaction as “we give it to tons of people and they are fine”. They insisted and I had the same reaction a second time. | F | 48 | 1 days 30 mg 1X day | 6/4/2021 | 1 | Possible kidney stone | Severe stomach pain diarrhea and vomiting | F | 56 | 1 times 1X day | 3/16/2021 | 1 | Went to the ER for ovarian cysts | severe nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, pain in my stomach, headache, dizziness, flu like symptoms. This drug is BAD. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE. this is the kind of "care" people receive at my local emergency room | The worst reaction to medicine that I've ever had | F | 46 | 1 days 30 mg iv 1X day | 1/29/2021 | 1 | Hemiplegic migraine | I received the injection at the hospital when I went in with stroke-like symptoms and a massive migraine. Within moments I could not breathe and fainted. I had to be put on forced oxygen, and when I woke up 18 hours later I was at home in bed, and have no memories from losing consciousness to getting back home (I was released and sent home with my ex-husband who came to pick me up). I was terrified when it happened, and I genuinely thought I was going to die. I would never, ever recommend this to anyone. | Immediate Allergic Reaction - Could not breathe to a point of syncope/fainting | F | 28 | 1 times unk | 12/2/2020 | 1 | Headache | Bad belly cramps an diarrhea | F | 24 | 0 days 1X day | 11/17/2020 | 1 | Toothache | Was given into up at er.

The side effect that occurred on me was that, where they injected the medication, felt and still feels like the needle is inside. Every time I lay down on the area where it was injected (butt) hurts a lot. This has been occurring for almost three weeks now. | Remove this medicine alternative. | F | 19 | 1 days 1X day | 8/25/2020 | 1 | Sciatica | I have to admit it took my pain away almost immediately but it only lasted 6 hours. After an hour upon receiving the injection I experienced the worst stomach cramps I ever had and bad diarrhea...I don't want to get too graphic but I want to warn others that Toradol tore up my insides so bad that I have sores on my behind and still after 3 days I'm in extreme pain. I reviewed Toradol and found out they are trying to get it off the market so why are they still giving this to patients! | F | 37 | 1 days 10mg 1X day | 7/27/2020 |
