Ketorolac

For short-term moderate to severe pain not responding to over-the-counter options, a Ketorolac injection may be considered with strict safeguards. Before administering Ketorolac in Portland, I complete a full intake and obtain prescriber approval.

Ketorolac is an NSAID sometimes used for acute musculoskeletal pain, post-injury discomfort, or severe headaches when used sparingly. Dosing is limited to once every 14 days to reduce kidney, GI, and cardiovascular risks.

If you are considering anti-inflammatory IV or IM pain medication in Portland, OR, I review your health history and red-flag symptoms. The goal of Ketorolac use in Portland is short-term symptom support within evidence-based safety limits.
