Pharmacokinetics
ABOSORPTION
• Good GI absorption: Oral Bioavailability 60-98%
• Main absorption at Small intestine
• Depend on gastric emptying time
• ↑Gastric emptying time ↓Absorption rate
• Example: Opioid
• 3 Main types
• Immediate-release : 30-45 mins in adult and
30 mins in ped syrups
• Extended-release : in 1-2 h and within 4 h
• Rectal route in pediatric : 107 mins to 5 hours
Pharmacokinetics
DISTRIBUTION
• Mainly in bloodstream
• Volume of distribution(Vd) = 1 L/Kg
• Protein binding ↓~10-30%

Unknow time of ingestion
If the time of ingestion is unknown,
or clinician is not confident of the history of ingestion
it is safest to treat the patient as a delayed presentation.
