Norethindrone: ~8–11 hours (terminal); ethinyl estradiol: ~13–19 hours (terminal). Steady-state achieved within 5–7 days.
Levonorgestrel: terminal half-life 11-45 hours (mean 24-30 h); Ethinyl estradiol: terminal half-life 10-27 hours (mean 17 h). Steady-state reached after 5-7 days.
Renal (30–40% as metabolites, <5% unchanged); biliary/fecal (40–60% as metabolites).
Renal (about 50-60% as metabolites, <10% unchanged), fecal (about 30-40% via biliary elimination). Ethinyl estradiol undergoes enterohepatic recirculation.
