Ketorolac, sold under the brand names Toradol, Acular and Sprix, among others, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for the short-term treatment of moderate to severe pain. Its use is generally limited to no more than five days because extended treatment increases the risk of serious adverse effects. It can be taken by mouth, by nose, by injection into a vein or muscle, and as eye drops. Effects begin within an hour and last for up to eight hours. Ketorolac also has antipyretic (fever-reducing) properties.
