"went to er with severe flank pain, was given toradol via my iv and it worked miracles -- pain went from an 8 to a 2 in about 15 minutes. found out i had a couple kidney stones and was prescribed 10 mg tablets to take for several days. they barely worked at all, had to go back a couple days later with my pain just as bad and be prescribed something else. so, toradol is great when administered through an iv, not so good in pill form."
