Answers:
ketorolac also known as tordol, is a non-opiod pain killer, it has fairly powerfull pain relieving properties but does not produce the drowsy or euphoric effects like morphine or other opiod painkillers used!. This is because ketorolac is an NSAID( non steroidal anti-inflamatory drug) simular to ibuprofen but much more powerfull, often times we use it in pt's who just came back from open heart surgery, we tend not to use for to long and try and get patients off it ASAP because it is very nephrotoxic it can damage your kidneysWww@Answer-Health@Com

Used for pain!. It is not to be taken longer than five days and it is given intravenously the first few times or by injection into a large muscle!. Go to medlineplus/health!.com and read about it!. Best to you young lady and good luck on taking it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Analgesic!. Specifically an NSAID (Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drug)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
