Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs have been useful for treating postoperative pain in children. The only parenteral nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug currently available in the United States is ketorolac tromethamine with cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxygenase-2 effects. Information on the pharmacokinetics of ketorolac in infants is sparse, making dosing difficult. Ketorolac is administered as a racemic mixture with the S(-) isomer responsible for the analgesic effect. In this study, we describe the population pharmacokinetics of ketorolac in a group of 25 infants and toddlers who received a single IV administration of racemic ketorolac and evaluate the potential influence of patient covariates on ketorolac disposition.
