Distribution: Extensively distributed in the tissues (skin, lungs, tonsils, cervix) and sputum. Present in breastmilk. Volume of distribution: 31-33 L/kg. Plasma protein-binding: 7-51%.
Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver to inactive metabolites.
Excretion: Via bile (50%, as unchanged drug); urine (6-14%, as unchanged drug). Terminal elimination half-life: 68-72 hours (conventional preparations); 59 hours (extended release).
