Abstract
Ketorolac tromethamine (0.5 mg kg‐1) was given intravenously to 10 children (age 4‐8 years) after minor surgery. Values of steady‐state volume of distribution and plasma clearance were approximately two times higher than those in adults but values of elimination half‐life were similar.Keywords
