ALERT: US Boxed Warning
Appropriate use:

Ketorolac is indicated for the short-term (up to 5 days in adults) management of moderately severe acute pain that requires analgesia at the opioid level. Oral ketorolac is only indicated as continuation treatment following IV or IM dosing of ketorolac, if necessary. The total combined duration of use of ketorolac tablets and injection should not exceed 5 days. The recommended total daily dose of ketorolac tablets (maximum 40 mg) is significantly lower than for ketorolac injection (maximum 120 mg).

Ketorolac is not indicated for use in pediatric patients and is not indicated for minor or chronic painful conditions. Increasing the dose of ketorolac beyond labeled recommendations will not provide better efficacy but will increase the risk of developing serious adverse events.

Cardiovascular thrombotic events:

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, including myocardial infarction and stroke, which can be fatal. This risk may occur early in treatment and may increase with duration of use.

Ketorolac is contraindicated in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

GI risk:

Ketorolac can cause peptic ulcers, GI bleeding, and/or perforation of the stomach or intestines, which can be fatal. These events can occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms. Therefore, ketorolac is contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcer disease, recent GI bleeding or perforation, and a history of peptic ulcer disease or GI bleeding. Elderly patients and patients with a prior history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding are at greater risk for serious GI events.

Intrathecal or epidural administration:

Ketorolac is contraindicated for intrathecal or epidural administration due to its alcohol content.

Hypersensitivity:

Hypersensitivity reactions, ranging from bronchospasm to anaphylactic shock, have occurred and appropriate counteractive measures must be available when administering the first dose of ketorolac injection. Ketorolac is contraindicated in patients with previously demonstrated hypersensitivity to ketorolac or allergic manifestations to aspirin or other NSAIDs.

Renal risk:

Ketorolac is contraindicated in patients with advanced renal impairment and in patients at risk for renal failure due to volume depletion.

Risk of bleeding:

Ketorolac inhibits platelet function and is, therefore, contraindicated in patients with suspected or confirmed cerebrovascular bleeding, hemorrhagic diathesis, incomplete hemostasis, and those at high risk of bleeding.

Ketorolac is contraindicated as a prophylactic analgesic before any major surgery.

Risk during labor and delivery:

The use of ketorolac in labor and delivery is contraindicated because it may adversely affect fetal circulation and inhibit uterine contractions.

Concomitant use with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs:

Ketorolac is contraindicated in patients currently receiving aspirin or NSAIDs because of the cumulative risks of inducing serious NSAID-related adverse events.

Special populations:

Dosage should be adjusted for patients ≥65 years of age, for patients <50 kg (110 lbs) of body weight, and for patients with moderately elevated serum creatinine. Doses of ketorolac injection are not to exceed 60 mg (total dose per day) in these patients.

GFR <10 mL/minute/1.73 m2: Administer 25% to 50% of dose.

Intermittent hemodialysis: Avoid use.

Peritoneal dialysis: Avoid use.

KDIGO guidelines provide the following recommendations for NSAIDs (Ref):

eGFR 30 to <60 mL/minute/1.73 m2: Temporarily discontinue in patients with intercurrent disease that increases risk of acute kidney injury.

eGFR <30 mL/minute/1.73 m2: Avoid use.

Dosing: Hepatic Impairment: Pediatric

There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling. Use with caution, may cause elevation of liver enzymes; discontinue if clinical signs and symptoms of liver disease develop.

Adverse Reactions (Significant): Considerations
Cardiovascular effects

Use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is associated with an increased risk of serious adverse cardiovascular (CV) events, including acute myocardial infarction (MI), cerebrovascular accident, and CV death. New-onset hypertension or exacerbation of hypertension may occur with NSAID use, which may also contribute to an increased risk of CV events; this effect was documented following use of celecoxib, ibuprofen, or naproxen in the PRECISION-ABPM trial (Ref). NSAIDS should be avoided in patients hospitalized for acute coronary syndromes due to the risk of adverse cardiac events (Ref). New-onset or exacerbation of heart failure may also occur with cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 selective NSAIDs (ie, coxibs) and nonselective NSAIDs, including ketorolac, resulting in an increased risk of hospitalizations for heart failure and death in patients with heart failure (Ref).

Data collected by the Coxib and traditional NSAID Trialists’ Collaborative have shown that high-dose naproxen may have the most favorable CV risk profile among NSAIDs analyzed (Ref); however, data from the PRECISION trial showed no difference with regards to risk between naproxen, ibuprofen, or celecoxib after a treatment duration of therapy of ~3 years (Ref).

CV risk associated with use of ketorolac was not evaluated in long-term studies as treatment with ketorolac is limited to short-term use (ie, 5 days). Additionally, several retrospective studies evaluating the use of ketorolac in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery have failed to find an increased risk of adverse effects including mortality, MI, and bleeding events in this patient population (Ref); clinicians should note that these studies cannot confirm mortality benefit and/or increased graft patency. The FDA states that there are insufficient data to determine if the risk of MI or stroke is definitely higher or lower for any particular NSAID as compared to another (Ref).

Mechanism: Dose- and time-related; inhibition of COX-2 by NSAIDs results in a reduction in the production of prostaglandin I2 (prostacyclin), a potent vasodilator and anticoagulant present in the vascular endothelium (Ref). Animal studies have shown that reduced prostacyclin activity may result in a predisposition to vascular injury (Ref). In addition, prostaglandins inhibit sodium resorption in the thick ascending loop of Henle and collecting tubule; therefore, a reduction in prostaglandin synthesis by NSAIDs may cause sodium and fluid retention and result in hypertension and decreased efficacy of diuretics (Ref).

Onset: Varied; increased risk is associated with both short- and long-term use and may be apparent within the first weeks following initiation of treatment (Ref); longer duration of therapy may further increase risk (Ref). Treatment with ketorolac is limited to short-term use (ie, 5 days).

Risk factors:

• ≥65 years of age

• Higher doses (especially with regards to CV thrombotic risk [(Ref)]

• Longer duration of use and frequent use (eg, ≥22 days per month (Ref)

- Note: Treatment with ketorolac is limited to short-term use (ie, 5 days).

• Preexisting CVD, including heart failure, or presence of risk factors for CVD (Ref)

- Note: Relative risk appears to be similar in those with and without known CVD or risk factors for CVD; however, absolute incidence of serious CV thrombotic events appears to be higher in patients with known CVD or risk factors for CVD due to an increased baseline risk (Ref).

- Note: The use of NSAIDs is contraindicated in the setting of CABG surgery due to an increased risk of MI and stroke in this patient population. Yet, retrospective studies specific to ketorolac have not shown an increased risk of death, MI, or bleeding events following use in postoperative CABG patients (Ref).

Gastrointestinal effects

Use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), especially nonselective NSAIDs, such as ketorolac, is associated with an increased risk of serious gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events, including gastrointestinal inflammation, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, gastrointestinal ulcer, and gastrointestinal perforation; severity may range from asymptomatic to fatal (Ref). The risk of upper GI hemorrhage and/or perforation has been reported to be higher with ketorolac as compared to other nonselective NSAIDs (Ref).

Mechanism: Dose- and time-related; inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 by NSAIDs results in a reduction in the production of mucosal-protective prostaglandin E2 (Ref).

Onset: Varied; GI events can occur at any time during use and without warning symptoms. A longer duration of use (eg, ≥7 days (Ref)) is associated with a greater risk. Treatment with ketorolac is limited to short-term use (ie, 5 days).

Risk factors:

• Older age (eg, ≥65 years of age (Ref))

• Longer duration of use (eg, ≥5 days (Ref))

- Note: Treatment with ketorolac is limited to short-term use (ie, 5 days).

• Higher doses

• Prior history of peptic ulcer disease and/or GI bleeding (Ref)

• Concomitant use of agents known to increase the risk of GI bleeding (eg, aspirin (Ref), anticoagulants, corticosteroids (Ref), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (Ref))

• Comorbid Helicobacter pylori infection (Ref)

• Advanced liver disease/cirrhosis

• Coagulopathy

• Smoking

• Consumption of alcohol

• People with poor general health status

• Small intestine damage: Small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), including SIBO induced by proton pump inhibitor therapy, may be associated with an increased risk of small intestine damage (Ref)

Hematologic effects

Use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including ketorolac, is associated with prolonged bleeding time and an increased risk for hemorrhage, particularly gastrointestinal bleeding (Ref). Some studies have suggested that ketorolac is not associated with increased bleeding in the perioperative period (Ref).

In addition, drug-induced hemolytic anemia may occur with the use of NSAIDs (Ref). Rarely, NSAID use has been associated with potentially severe blood dyscrasias (eg, agranulocytosis, aplastic anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia) (Ref).

Mechanism:

Prolonged bleeding time: Inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 by nonselective NSAIDs causes a decrease in the production of prostaglandins, prostacyclins, and thromboxanes, including thromboxane A2 (TxA2) (Ref). As a result, patients may exhibit a decrease in platelet adhesion and aggregation and subsequent prolonged bleeding time (Ref).

Blood dyscrasias: Not clearly established; anemia may be due to occult or gross blood loss, fluid retention, or an incompletely described effect on erythropoiesis. May also be attributed to a drug-dependent immune mechanism (Ref).

Onset: Prolonged bleeding time: Rapid; suppression of platelet COX-1 activity occurs within hours of administration of an NSAID (Ref). Bleeding time was prolonged within hours of administration of a single dose of ketorolac in healthy volunteers (Ref); postoperatively, bleeding has been reported after a single dose of ketorolac (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Bleeding events:

- Preexisting coagulation disorders

- Concomitant use of agents known to increase the risk of bleeding (eg, anticoagulants (Ref), antithrombotics (Ref), antiplatelet agents [eg, aspirin, P2Y12 inhibitors], selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (Ref), or serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors)

- Use during and immediately following surgical procedures (Ref)

• Note: Some studies have suggested that ketorolac is not associated with increased bleeding in the perioperative period (Ref)

- Age <21 days and <37 weeks corrected gestational age (Ref)

Hepatic effects

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including ketorolac, may cause mild transaminase elevations, especially with higher doses; one study found no association between use of parenteral ketorolac and hepatoxic effects (Ref). Rarely, serious liver injury may occur following use of NSAIDs (Ref). Cholestatic and mixed patterns of injury have been reported with the use of NSAIDs. NSAID-induced hepatic effects may occur following severe hypersensitivity reactions (eg, toxic epidermal necrosis, Stevens-Johnson syndrome) and are characterized by immune-mediated symptoms (eg, fever rash, eosinophilia, lymphadenopathy) (Ref). Severe liver injury requiring liver transplantation has also been reported following use of NSAIDs (Ref). Most cases of liver injury are likely reversible following discontinuation; full recovery may take several months (Ref). However, chronic vanishing bile duct syndrome with chronic liver failure has been reported following cholestatic liver injury secondary to ibuprofen (Ref).

Mechanism: Not clearly established; dose-related has been suggested (Ref). Proposed mechanisms include a toxic metabolite or a hypersensitivity reaction (Ref).

Onset: Varied; onset of NSAID-induced hepatotoxicity is generally classified as moderate (30 to 90 days) to long (>90 days) (Ref). For ibuprofen, a mean time of 12 days (range: 1 to 42 days) was reported in one study (Ref). Treatment with ketorolac is limited to short-term use (ie, 5 days).

Risk factors:

• Higher doses (Ref)

• Prior NSAID-related liver injury (Ref)

- Note: Cross-reactivity may occur between groups of NSAIDs (eg, cross-reactivity between propionic acid derivatives [ibuprofen, naproxen, ketoprofen]) (Ref). Ketorolac is a member of the pyrrolo-pyrrole group of NSAIDs.

Hypersensitivity reactions (immediate and delayed)

Hypersensitivity reactions (immediate and delayed) involving the skin (eg, angioedema, urticaria), airways (eg, dyspnea, rhinorrhea), and/or other organs have been reported (Ref). Clinical phenotypes of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) hypersensitivity reactions include NSAID-exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD), NSAID-induced urticaria/angioedema (NIUA), NSAID-exacerbated cutaneous disease (NECD), and single NSAID-induced urticaria/angioedema or anaphylaxis (Ref). Delayed hypersensitivity reactions, including drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS), and Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS)/toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) have also been associated with ketorolac.

Mechanism:

Immediate reactions: Non–dose-related; most reactions (ie, NERD, NECD, NIUA) are nonimmunologic related to inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 with subsequent activation of mast cells and eosinophils causing release of inflammatory mediators including cysteinyl-leukotrienes (Ref). Some immediate reactions may be IgE mediated (Ref).

Delayed reactions: Delayed hypersensitivity reactions are T-cell mediated (Ref).

Onset:

Immediate reactions: Rapid; generally occurs within 1 hour of administration but may occur several hours after exposure (Ref).

Delayed reactions (including DRESS and SJS/TEN): Varied; generally occurs after 1 to 8 weeks after initiation (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Presence of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, family history of NERD, and/or severe asthma may increase the risk of NERD (Ref). The prevalence of NERD in adult patients with asthma is ~10% to 20% (Ref).

• Chronic urticaria increases the risk of NECD (Ref). NSAID-induced reactions are less frequent and less intense when chronic urticaria is in remission or under control (Ref). Approximately 12% to 30% of patients with chronic idiopathic urticaria develop exacerbations of their disease with use of ketorolac and other COX-1 inhibitors (Ref).

• Cross-reactivity between aspirin and NSAIDs, including ketorolac (with predominant COX-1 inhibition) have been described in patients with a history of NERD, NECD, and NIUA (Ref). Cross-reactivity between aspirin/NSAID and acetaminophen, a weak COX inhibitor, and between aspirin/NSAID and nonselective COX-2 inhibitors (eg, meloxicam, nimesulide) may occur (Ref). Although selective COX-2 inhibitors (eg, celecoxib, etoricoxib) are generally tolerated in patients with NERD (Ref), cross-reactions may occur, especially in patients with histories of urticaria/angioedema (Ref).

Kidney effects

Hemodynamically mediated acute kidney injury (AKI) may occur following use of either cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (ie, coxibs) or nonselective NSAIDs, including ketorolac (Ref); the risk may be greater with nonselective NSAIDs (Ref). The risk of developing AKI is decreased upon discontinuation (Ref). In patients who develop AKI, kidney function is likely to return to baseline following prompt discontinuation of the offending NSAID and supportive care (Ref); however, the mechanism of the damage and other concurrent factors can contribute to irreversibility.

Mechanism: Dose- and time-related; inhibition of COX-1 and COX-2 by NSAIDs results in a reduced production of nephroprotective prostaglandins and subsequent attenuation of renal vasodilation (Ref). In addition, an increase in vasoconstriction of the afferent arteriole and impaired renal blood flow causes a reduction in the glomerular capillary pressure and filtration (Ref).

Onset: Rapid; may occur within hour to days of treatment initiation (Ref).

Risk factors:

• AKI:

- Preexisting kidney impairment

- Chronic kidney disease

- ≥65 years of age (Ref)

Note: NSAID-associated AKI may also occur in pediatric patients, even at therapeutic doses (Ref).

• Hemodynamically mediated AKI:

- Preexisting conditions that result in decreased effective arterial circulation (ie, conditions where renal blood flow/renal perfusion may be dependent on prostaglandin-mediated vasodilation) (Ref):

• Volume depletion (eg, due to concomitant diuretic use, vomiting)

• Heart failure (Ref)

• Cirrhosis and ascites (Ref)

• Nephrotic syndrome

- Concomitant use of diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, or calcineurin inhibitors (Ref)

Warnings/Precautions

Concerns related to adverse effects:

• Hyperkalemia: NSAID use may increase the risk of hyperkalemia, particularly in patients ≥65 years of age, in patients with diabetes or renal disease, and with concomitant use of other agents capable of inducing hyperkalemia (eg, ACE-inhibitors). Monitor potassium closely.

Disease-related concerns:

• Aseptic meningitis: May increase the risk of aseptic meningitis, especially in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and mixed connective tissue disorders.

• Bariatric surgery: Gastric ulceration: Avoid chronic use of oral nonselective NSAIDs after bariatric surgery; development of anastomotic ulcerations/perforations may occur (Bhangu 2014; Mechanick 2020). Short-term use of celecoxib or IV ketorolac are recommended as part of a multimodal pain management strategy for postoperative pain (Chou 2016; Horsley 2019; Thorell 2016).

• Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with hepatic impairment or a history of hepatic disease; patients with advanced hepatic disease are at an increased risk of GI bleeding and kidney failure with NSAIDs (AASLD [Biggins 2021]; AASLD [Runyon 2013]).

Special populations:

• Older adult: Patients ≥65 years of age are at greater risk for serious GI, cardiovascular, and/or renal adverse events; use with caution.

Other warnings/precautions:

• Surgical/dental procedures: Withhold for at least 4 to 6 half-lives prior to surgical or dental procedures.

Warnings: Additional Pediatric Considerations

In neonates, bleeding events have been reported; in a retrospective analysis of 57 postsurgical neonates and infants (age range: 0 to 3 months), 17.2% of patients experienced a bleeding event, most were PNA <21 days and those with PNA <14 days had a significantly higher risk than older neonates (Aldrink 2011). Acute kidney injury (AKI) has been observed in pediatric patients; with ketorolac use following cardiothoracic surgery, an increased risk of AKI was observed in neonates and infants who underwent a bidirectional Glenn procedure and were receiving concomitant aspirin therapy (Moffett 2013).

Food Interactions

Reproductive Considerations

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs may delay or prevent rupture of ovarian follicles. This may be associated with infertility that is reversible upon discontinuation of the medication. Consider discontinuing use in patients having difficulty conceiving or those undergoing investigation of fertility.

Pregnancy Considerations

Ketorolac crosses the placenta (Walker 1988).

The use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) close to conception may be associated with an increased risk of miscarriage due to cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition interfering with implantation (Bermas 2014; Bloor 2013).

Birth defects have been observed following in utero NSAID exposure in some studies; however, data are conflicting (Bloor 2013). Nonteratogenic effects, including prenatal constriction of the ductus arteriosus, persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, oligohydramnios, necrotizing enterocolitis, renal dysfunction or failure, and intracranial hemorrhage, have been observed in the fetus/neonate following in utero NSAID exposure (Bermas 2014; Bloor 2013). Maternal NSAID use may cause fetal renal dysfunction leading to oligohydramnios. Although rare, this may occur as early as 20 weeks' gestation and is more likely to occur with prolonged maternal use. Oligohydramnios may be reversible following discontinuation of the NSAID (Dathe 2019; FDA 2020). In addition, nonclosure of the ductus arteriosus postnatally may occur and be resistant to medical management (Bermas 2014; Bloor 2013).

Maternal use of NSAIDs should be avoided beginning at 20 weeks' gestation. If NSAID use is necessary between 20 and 30 weeks' gestation, limit use to the lowest effective dose and shortest duration possible; consider ultrasound monitoring of amniotic fluid if treatment extends beyond 48 hours and discontinue the NSAID if oligohydramnios is found (FDA 2020). Because NSAIDs may cause premature closure of the ductus arteriosus, prescribing information for ketorolac specifically states use should be avoided starting at 30 weeks' gestation

Due to pregnancy-induced physiologic changes, some pharmacokinetic properties of ketorolac may be altered. Ketorolac has S and R enantiomers; pharmacologic activity is associated with S-ketorolac enantiomer. The clearance of S-ketorolac was found to increase at delivery compared to postpartum values; the peak serum concentration was decreased (Kulo 2017; Välitalo 2017).

[US Boxed Warning]: The use of ketorolac in labor and delivery is contraindicated because it may adversely affect fetal circulation and inhibit uterine contractions. The risk of uterine hemorrhage may be increased. NSAIDs may be used as part of multimodal pain management following cesarean delivery (ACOG 2019).

Breastfeeding Considerations

Ketorolac is present in breast milk (Wischnik 1989).

The relative infant dose (RID) of ketorolac is 0.21% when calculated using the highest breast milk concentration located and compared to a weight-adjusted maternal dose of 40 mg/day.

In general, breastfeeding is considered acceptable when the RID is <10% (Anderson 2016; Ito 2000).

The RID of ketorolac was calculated using a milk concentration of 7.9 ng/mL providing an estimated infant dose via breast milk of 1.185 mcg/kg/day. This milk concentration was obtained following maternal administration of oral ketorolac 10 mg 4 times a day for 2 days in 10 women 2 to 6 days postpartum (Wischnik 1989).

Information related to breastfeeding is available from 3 studies that evaluated use of ketorolac as part of a multimodal protocol for pain following cesarean delivery. In 1 study, women were given a single dose of ketorolac. There were no differences observed between neonates exposed to the protocol containing ketorolac compared to routine standard care without ketorolac in relation to breastfeeding, neonatal growth, sedation and respiratory depression (Hadley 2019). In a second study, ketorolac was used as needed or as a scheduled dose every 6 hours for 24 hours. More mothers who received the scheduled doses exclusively breastfed their newborns; the duration of breastfeeding was also increased (Teigen 2020). In a third study, the maternal dose of ketorolac (15 or 30 mg) was not found to influence the incidence of breastfeeding when used for up to 24 hours postpartum (Yurashevich 2020).

Nonopioid analgesics, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), are preferred for breastfeeding patients who require pain control peripartum or for surgery outside of the postpartum period (ABM [Martin 2018]; ABM [Reece-Stremtan 2017]).

The manufacturer recommends that caution be used if administered to patients who are breastfeeding. Maternal use of NSAIDs should be avoided if the breastfeeding infant has platelet dysfunction, thrombocytopenia, or a ductal-dependent cardiac lesion (ABM [Martin 2018]; ABM [Reece-Stremtan 2017]; Bloor 2013). Agents other than ketorolac are preferred in breastfeeding patients at risk of hemorrhage (ABM [Reece-Stremtan 2017]),

Dietary Considerations

Administer tablet with food or milk to decrease gastrointestinal distress.

Monitor response (pain, range of motion, grip strength, mobility, ADL function), inflammation; observe for weight gain, edema; renal function (serum creatinine, BUN, urine output); CBC and platelets, liver function; chemistry profile; blood pressure; observe for bleeding, bruising; evaluate GI effects (abdominal pain, bleeding, dyspepsia); mental confusion, disorientation; signs and symptoms of hypersensitivity (eg, fever, rash, lymphadenopathy, eosinophilia) in association with other organ system involvement (eg, hepatitis, nephritis, hematological abnormalities, myocarditis, myositis).

Reference Range

Serum concentration: Therapeutic: 0.3 to 5 mcg/mL; Toxic: >5 mcg/mL

Mechanism of Action

Reversibly inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 and 2 (COX-1 and 2) enzymes, which results in decreased formation of prostaglandin precursors; has antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties

Other proposed mechanisms not fully elucidated (and possibly contributing to the anti-inflammatory effect to varying degrees), include inhibiting chemotaxis, altering lymphocyte activity, inhibiting neutrophil aggregation/activation, and decreasing proinflammatory cytokine levels.

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Onset of action: Analgesic: ~30 minutes.

Peak effect: Analgesic: ~2 to 3 hours.

Duration: Analgesic: 4 to 6 hours.

Absorption: Oral: Well absorbed (100%), administration after a high-fat meal decreased peak and delayed time to peak concentrations by ~1 hour; IM: Rapid and complete.

Distribution: Poor penetration into cerebrospinal fluid.

Infants: Vdss: ~0.2 L/kg (McLay 2018).

Children and Adolescents <16 years: Vdss: 0.18 L/kg (McLay 2018).

Adults: Vd beta: Oral, IM: 0.17 ± 0.04 L/kg; IV: 0.21 ± 0.04 L/kg.

Protein binding: 99%.

Metabolism: Hepatic; undergoes hydroxylation and glucuronide conjugation.

Bioavailability: Oral, IM: 100%.

Half-life elimination:

Infants ≥6 months: S-enantiomer: 0.83 ± 0.7 hours; R-enantiomer: 4 ± 0.8 hours (Lynn 2007).

Children and Adolescents ≤16 years: 3 ± 1.1 hours (Dsida 2002).

Adults:

Mean: ~5 hours; Range: 2 to 9 hours [S-enantiomer ~2.5 hours (biologically active); R-enantiomer ~5 hours]; Prolonged 30% to 50% in elderly.

With renal impairment: Scr 1.9 to 5 mg/dL: Mean: ~11 hours; Range: 4 to 19 hours.

Renal dialysis patients: Mean: ~14 hours; Range: 8 to 40 hours.

Time to peak, serum: Oral: ~45 minutes; IM: ~30 to 45 minutes; IV: 1 to 3 minutes.

Excretion: Urine (92%, ~60% as unchanged drug); feces ~6%.

Pharmacokinetics: Additional Considerations (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Altered kidney function: Clearance is reduced and half-life is increased in renal impairment. AUC is increased by ~100% and volume of distribution increases.

Pediatric: Vd and clearance are higher in pediatric patients compared to adults.

Older adult: Half-life is longer in patients ≥65 years of age.
