Does toradol reduce fever?

The doctor gave me Toradol for my knee pain after an injury. I've also been feeling a bit feverish since yesterday. Does this medicine help in reducing body temperature too?

I was given a Toradol injection after my minor surgery, and it helped with both my post-op pain and the mild fever I had. I can't say if it should be used just for fever, but that was my experience. You should ask a proper pharmacist or doctor.

Oh, please be very careful with Toradol! It does reduce fever because it's an NSAID, but I read it has high risks of stomach bleeding if taken without medical supervision. I get so nervous about side effects, so I always consult my physician before taking anything strong.

It can reduce fever, but Toradol is a heavy nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. For people like me who have high blood pressure, taking such medicines without caution can cause issues. Please get your BP checked and consult a doctor instead of self-treating fever.

It can bring down a fever, but honestly, it is mostly used for severe pain relief, like after an accident or surgery. For just a normal fever, using such a strong drug is a bit much. A simple paracetamol usually does the trick way more safely.

When my teenager had a terrible flu and high fever last winter, I asked our pediatrician about Toradol. She strictly advised against it for regular fever relief because of potential side effects on the stomach lining. Please consult your family doctor first.

Haan na, fever toh kam ho jayega isse, par humare doctor ne kaha tha ye bhot strong painkiller hai. Sirf fever ke liye Toradol khana thoda jyada ho jayega. Normal Crocin ya Dolo hi best rehti hai aise cases me.

Agree, it reduces fever but it is primarily a strong pain medication. Stick to standard fever reducers unless specifically prescribed by your doctor.

I know how stressful it is when your fever won't go down and you just want a quick fix. Toradol can reduce fever, but please don't let anxiety make you take strong painkillers. Talk to a doctor first, it will really help put your mind at ease.

Yes, it has fever-reducing properties, but such heavy chemical interventions can disturb your gut health. Along with whatever mild fever medicine your doctor advises, try taking rest in Shavasana and sipping warm ginger tea. It helps the body heal naturally.

Just last week I had a bad viral fever and body aches. The doctor prescribed a specific paracetamol brand, and when I asked about Toradol, he said it's not recommended for routine fever control because of stomach issues. Trust me, simple fever meds work best.
