Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI); inhibits serotonin transporter (SERT) in the presynaptic terminal, increasing synaptic serotonin levels.
Terconazole is a triazole antifungal agent that inhibits fungal cytochrome P450 14α-demethylase, thereby blocking the conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane. This disrupts membrane integrity and function.
1000 mg intravenously every 12 hours infused over 2 hours
Intravaginal cream (0.4%, 0.8%): one applicatorful (approximately 5 g) intravaginally once daily at bedtime for 7 days; vaginal suppository (80 mg): one suppository intravaginally once daily at bedtime for 3 days.

Terminal elimination half-life is 12.4 hours (range 11.2–14.1 hours) in patients with normal renal function; allows twice-daily dosing for steady-state within 3 days.
Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 25-37 hours, allowing once-daily dosing for vaginal infections.
Renal excretion of unchanged drug accounts for approximately 65% of elimination; biliary/fecal excretion accounts for 25%; the remaining 10% is metabolized by hepatic CYP3A4-mediated oxidation.
Primarily hepatic metabolism with biliary excretion; approximately 60-80% of the dose is excreted in feces as metabolites, and about 20% in urine mostly as inactive metabolites.
