However, fat-rich food reduces and prolongs maximum concentration reach in the blood up to 1 hour.  Semiejection period of the preparation makes up 5 hours on average. 99% of Ketorolac relates to plasma proteins.

Pharmacokinetics changes in ageing people and patients having kidneys’ function disorder. In ageing people preparation clearance decreases and semiejection period increases up to 6 hours on average. Preparation excretion decreases in those patients who have kidneys’ function disorder, followed by general clearance reduction and semiejection period increases up to 9-10 hours. Ketorolac passes placental barrier with small concentration, also transfers into breast milk.
