Is injection of tordol and norflox right medication to treat kidney stones?
Patient: Just got back from ER...kidney stone. Second one in two days. CT scan says it is 5mm in size. This will be number 8 for me. I am a 70 yr. old female and I do have a high tolerance for pain. I was gievn an injection of tordol and one of norflex and something for nausea. I feel much better right now. I was told that the stone is half way down the ureter. I am hoping it will pass quickly. Doctor: Hello,Thank you for the query.The injections you have had consist of an analgesic (toradol) to relieve the pain, and an antibiotic(norflox) to prevent infection of the urinary tract. The stone is relatively small and goes away by itself. I think it will pass quickly the remaining half of the ureter.
