Drug & supplement interaction

Tagetes + Ketorolac Tromethamine

Ketorolac Tromethamine brand names: Toradol, Acuvail.

No Known Interaction
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Tagetes 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.

Tagetes 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 Tagetes 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 Tagetes 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.

Tagetes safety at a glance

Tagetes overall Use caution Generally considered low-risk in food amounts, but the essential oil and concentrated extracts can irritate skin and lack strong safety data.
Pregnancy Avoid Avoid medicinal or essential oil use during pregnancy because safety has not been established.
Breastfeeding Avoid Not enough safety information exists, so avoid medicinal use while breastfeeding.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Tagetes and Ketorolac Tromethamine May Share a Side Effect

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.

About Tagetes

What is Tagetes?

  • Digestive upset
  • Antimicrobial and antifungal
  • Skin and wound care
  • Insect repellent
  • Eye health (lutein source from petals)

Tagetes (marigold) is a group of flowering plants used in traditional medicine and as a source of plant pigments like lutein. Human evidence for most health benefits is very limited, and the essential oil can cause skin reactions and sun sensitivity. Talk to a pharmacist or doctor before using it, especially while pregnant or breastfeeding.

Asteraceae · Flowers, leaves, and essential oil · Essential oil, tea, dried flowers, topical preparations, tinctures

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

Tagetes: dosing

There is no well-established standard dose for Tagetes as a supplement or medicine. Products vary widely in strength, and the amount of active compounds depends on the species, plant part, and how it was prepared.If you choose to use a Tagetes product, follow the directions on the label and do not exceed them. Essential oils should be diluted before any skin use and kept away from the eyes and mouth.

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
