These injections allow the drug to be slowly absorbed into the patient over an extended period of time. Intramuscularly injected haloperidol decanoate has the following pharmacokinetic parameters in this patient: Elimination half-life: 27 days 0.0257 Absorption half-life: 8 days 0.0866 When will the maximum haldol decanoate concentration occur after an injection is administered once the patient has acheived steady state?
