Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). Binds to estrogen receptors, competitively inhibiting estrogen binding. In breast tissue, acts as an antagonist; in bone and cardiovascular system, acts as an agonist.
Nonsteroidal estrogen receptor antagonist; binds to estrogen receptors (ER) with high affinity, competitively inhibiting estrogen binding and exerting antiestrogenic effects. Also possesses weak estrogenic agonist activity.
300 mg orally once daily for 5 days, starting on day 1 of menses.

24-36 hours in adults; prolonged in renal impairment (up to 96 hours in ESRD). Steady-state reached in ~5 days.
About 5 days for the parent compound; clinical context: steady-state achieved in ~4 weeks
Primarily renal (80-90% as unchanged drug); biliary/fecal excretion accounts for 10-20%.
Primarily fecal (biliary excretion) as metabolites; approximately 10% renal
