The synthesis occurs by alkylating (3-methoxyphenyl)acetonitrile with bis(2-chloroethyl)methylamine, followed by a reaction with ethylmagnesium bromide, and finally O-demethylation with hydrobromic acid.

Ketobemidone is metabolized in the liver by N-demethylation, ringhydroxylation, O-methylation, and O-conjugation. The principal phase 1 reaction is N-demethylation, and it is also metabolized by conjugation of the phenolic hydroxyl group.<ref>Bondesson U, Hartvig P, Danielsson B (1981). "Quantitative determination of the urinary excretion of ketobemidone and four of its metabolites after intravenous and oral administration in man". ''Drug Metabolism and Disposition.'' '''9''' (4): 376–80. PMID [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/6114838 6114838].</ref> Primary metabolites of ketobemidone are norketobemidone, 4'-hydroxyketobemidone, and hydroxymethoxyketobemidone. The metabolites' pharmacological activity is unknown.<ref name=":0">https://bok.fass.se/LIF/product?userType=0&nplId=19930507000075</ref>

The elimination half-life of ketobemidone is 2 to 2.5 hours for both intravenous and oral administration.<ref name=":0" />
The elimination half-life of ketobemidone is 2 to 2.5 hours for both intravenous and oral administration.<ref name=":0" /> Analgesia after 5-10 mg orally or 5-7.5 mg intravenously lasts 3–5 hours. Ketobemidone is also available in preparations with a spasmolytic, which can improve the analgesia.
