[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 186937, member: 1233"] I am so sorry. Next time they give him toradol, be sure to ask more about it. It is a very strong NSAID. Works well for pain, but can cause stomach bleeding. It is rarely prescribed for home use anymore because it can cause stomach bleeding and cover up the pain of the bleeding. So people were having severe stomach bleeding and not knowing it. Did the ER doctor tell you he could take advil after the toradol shot? My docs have ALWAYS advised against it. I would also be careful with taking the tylenol #3 after excedrin. Excedrin has tylenol in it. difficult child should probably wait 4-6 hours from a dose of excedrin to a dose of tylenol #3. Ask the doctor for SPECIFIC prescribing instructions for all of these medications. Excedrin has an NSAID in it. Taking 800 mg advil after 2 excedrin is dangerous if they are close together timewise. This is one reason it would be a good idea to get a preventative medication for him. Are you/he keeping a headache diary to see how often they occur? this will greatly help any doctor you see in deciding what to do. [/QUOTE]
