"quite effective for most severe refractive migraines and intense neck/face pain.  however, it can be a bit harsh on the stomach, especially if used more than once.  i self-inject at home (nurse taught me) and have had pretty good results, avoiding er trips and the unnecessary use of strong narcotic painkillers.  interestingly, toradol didn&#039;t have the same efficacy when i was younger, about 15 years ago.  now it has much more efficacy.  the drawbacks (for me) include: having to inject in the upper thigh, can only use 5x per month, and potential stomach soreness with repeated doses."
