A member asked:
Is it possible to be immune to narcotic medications ? i got injured and was given a morphine drip but no response. but toradol worked wonders?

No real immunity: You can be intolerant to narcotics (getting bad reaction or an allergy). You can be insensitive ( when a higher dose than usual is needed for an effect) or an error could have occurred where there was no morphine in that drip! Fortunately, with the Toradol, all was well.
