It takes down the pain in my joints but it does make me drowsy.

Used 800 mg for a toothache pain over a period of 10 days per dentists instructions. Kept the pain under control, was very pleased with the results.

I just put one star on my ratings because I have not taken it yet. I have a question. I was told I have costochondritis, along with fibromyalgia. The doctor prescribed Toradol and the pharmacist only gave me 20 pills for a month. She said I can only take this for five days, regardless how many I take a day. Only five days a month. Does anyone know anything about this?

I have chronic lower back pain, also have a sub dermal pain pump giving me morphine 24/7. In spite of that i still have pain.One episode of extreme pain I saw my GP who gave me oral torodal and I was amazed. Almost pain free until the RX ran out. I was taking slightly less than prescribed (3 tabs/day instead of 4) but it was still very effective.How long should I lay off before taking it again? I'm going to ask my pain specialist to prescribe this for me. No side effects that I noticed and wonderful relief.
