In August of 2012, former USC defensive lineman Armond Armstead sued his alma mater, the University Park Medical Center, and Tibone—a prominent, respected Southern California orthopedic surgeon who has been USC football's head physician since 1991—for the improper administration of Toradol.
According to the suit, Tibone's off-label usage resulted in Armstead suffering a heart attack in early 2011, when he was 21 years old.
In his deposition, Tibone admitted to ignoring black box warnings for the drug because he didn't "agree with them."
