Not applicable for systemic elimination; local retention on hair/scalp lasts until next wash (typically 24-48 hours).
Terminal half-life: 12-15 hours in adults; prolonged in renal impairment (up to 30 hours)
Renal (urine): <1% unchanged; biliary/fecal: <1% as parent compound; majority remains on hair/scalp and is removed via washing and shedding. Systemic absorption negligible.
Renal excretion as unchanged drug (70-80%), biliary/fecal (15-20%)
