Hi,
As I haven't found any information about Coradol, so I guess that you want to know about Toradol instead of Coradol. Toradol contains ketorolac which belongs to the group of medications known as nonsteroidal anti inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) that is used to treat moderately severe pain and inflammation due to any cause. It works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, compounds that cause pain, fever and inflammation.
Side effects of Toradol are nausea, vomiting, headache, heartburn, upset stomach, diarrhea or constipation, stomach pain, bloating, gas, dizziness, drowsiness, sweating, ringing in the ears, allergic reactions etc. You can take 10 mg per oral once followed by 10 mg 4-6 hours prn not > 40 mg/day but Toradol therapy isn't exceed 5 days. You can drive taking it every 4-6 hours.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
