Breastfeeding After Ketorolac Injection

[Aimeewhite]

Hello,
I recently got an IM injection 30 mg of Ketorolac in the ER (even though I mentioned to them I'm currently breastfeeding) and wasn't aware that it's not recommended for breastfeeding. How long do I need to wait for feeding?

No need to hold off nursing! Toradol is acceptable to use (L2).

Are there any potential risks?

[nicholec]

Not with 30 mg IM one time. It is often given in postpartum days for pain every 6 hours without any complications. It is similar to taking a large dose of ibuprofen.
