Terminal elimination half-life is 1.5–2.5 hours; clinically relevant for dosing interval.
Approximately 2-4 hours; clinical context: rapid clearance limits systemic accumulation with topical use.
Renal (90% as unchanged drug and metabolites; 10% fecal/biliary).
Renal: <5% unchanged; Biliary/fecal: negligible; primarily metabolized in liver, metabolites excreted renally.
