Ketorolac (marketed as Toradol) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) often used as an analgesic, fever reducer, and anti-inflammatory.

This does help with Pain. It's not a narcotic so you will not feel drowsy. It works very well for most types of pain.

It is a pain killer, but it is not a narcotic. It has another name called "toradol"; it is a type of fairly strong NSAID, or non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug.

Hope that helps,
Julie
