✦ Synopsis
An exploratory study in paediatric surgical patients was performed to describe the behaviour of a rectal solution of paracetamol at 20 mg/kg. Four of six patients were able to complete the study. Peak concentration (C,) and time to peak concentration (t,,& found in the children are comparable to adults studied earlier. After 1.6 hrs (Lax) a peak concentration of 11.7 mg/l (C,,,) was reached. The area under the curve (AUC,J and the mean residence time (MRT) were respectively 48.3 mghr/l and 5.2 hrs. The solution appears promising for further study in daily clinical practise.
