7.8 hours (terminal); clinical context: prolonged in elderly and renal impairment, requiring dose adjustment.
Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 5 hours (range 4-6 hours) in healthy adults; prolonged in renal impairment.
Renal: 50% as unchanged drug, 25% as glucuronide conjugate; Biliary/Fecal: 25% as metabolites.
Renal: approximately 90% as metabolites and conjugates; biliary/fecal: minor (less than 10%)
