Hello, I been taking Ketorolac for about 1-1/2 days and I've be over salivating a lot. And I mean a lot. Every few minutes or so, and I'll have a mouthful. I can't sleep because of it. Is this a side effect?

It isn't a normal side effect, but what may be happening is the Ketorolac may be causing some excess stomach acid and if that is causing GERD, it could be what's causing you to produce so much saliva.

You can learn more Ketorolac details here.

This is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and they are well known to cause an increase in stomach acid and to cause stomach irritation.

I'm not a doctor, so you should check with your doctor before doing anything, but the solution may be as simple as adding an antacid, such as Tums.

Have you been making sure to take it with a full, 8 ounce glass of water?

If not, that could contribute to the gastric issues that it can cause.
