Drug & supplement interaction

Daffodil + Ketorolac Tromethamine

Ketorolac Tromethamine brand names: Toradol, Acuvail.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Daffodil and Ketorolac Tromethamine in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Daffodil and Ketorolac Tromethamine

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Ketorolac Tromethamine and Daffodil in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Daffodil at all — not against Ketorolac Tromethamine, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Daffodil and Ketorolac Tromethamine May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do.

  • Swelling Additional detail

    Daffodil

    “Daffodil is generally regarded as unsafe for use. Any benefits of therapy may not outweigh the risk of toxicity.

    Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):

    Orally: Irritation and swelling of the mouth, tongue, and throat, and sudden onset of vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Large doses have also been reported to cause blurred vision, coma, convulsions, dizziness, headache, hypotension, salivation, sweating, and tremors.”

    Daffodil · Natural Medicines adverse-effect record, reported in cluster headache.

    “Orally, daffodil can cause irritation and swelling of the mouth, tongue, and throat, as well as sudden onset of vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Vomiting and diarrhea often limit the progression of symptoms, and adults typically recover within 3-4 hours. Large doses of daffodil can cause toxicity, including excessive salivation (18,19,101223).”

About Daffodil

What is Daffodil?

  • Traditional anti-inflammatory remedy
  • Folk use for tumors and skin growths
  • Source of galantamine for memory/Alzheimer's
  • Antimicrobial folk use
  • Topical traditional remedies

Daffodil is a beautiful but toxic plant that contains alkaloids, including the one used to make the Alzheimer's drug galantamine. It is not safe to take as a homemade supplement, and all parts of the plant—especially the bulb—can cause serious poisoning if eaten. Leave any medicinal use to standardized, regulated medications prescribed by a doctor.

Narcissus pseudonarcissus · Amaryllidaceae · Bulb, flower, and leaves (source of certain alkaloids) · Not commonly available as a consumer supplement; the plant is the source of the prescription drug galantamine

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Daffodil is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Daffodil record says about it on its own.

Daffodil: dosing

There is no safe established dose of daffodil as a supplement, and it should not be taken by mouth. Because the whole plant is toxic, no amount can be recommended for self-treatment.The only proven medical use linked to this plant is the prescription drug galantamine, which is manufactured to a precise, standardized dose and must be prescribed and monitored by a healthcare provider.

About Ketorolac

What Is Ketorolac Used For?

Brand names: Toradol, Acuvail

Ketorolac is used for short-term management of moderately severe acute pain — the kind that would otherwise require an opioid-level painkiller. It is most commonly used in a postoperative (after surgery) setting.

Treatment is always started with an injection (IV or IM), and oral tablets are only used as a follow-up if needed. The total treatment time — shots plus pills combined — must never exceed 5 days. It is not meant for minor aches or long-term pain conditions.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Ketorolac Tromethamine

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (5,598 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Drug hypersensitivity 329 reports
Nausea 295 reports
Headache 284 reports
