(1_H_-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl]methoxy]phenyl]-4-isopropylpiperazine,

Terconazole, a triazole derivative, is a white to almost white powder
with a molecular weight of
532.47. It is insoluble in water; sparingly soluble in ethanol; and
soluble in butanol.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
ABS ORPTION
Following a single intravaginal application of a suppository
containing 240 mg
C-terconazole to
healthy women, approximately 70% (range: 64 to 76%) of terconazole
remains in the vaginal area
during the suppository retention period (16 hours); approximately 10%
(range: 5 to 16%) of the
administered radioactivity was absorbed systemically over 7 days.
Maximum plasma concentrations of
terconazole occur 5 to 10 hours after intravaginal application of the
cream or suppository. Systemic
exposure to terconazole is approximately proportional to the applied
dose, whether as the cream or
suppository. The rate and extent of absorption of terconazole are
similar in patients with vulvovaginal
candidiasis (pregnant or non-pregnant) and healthy subjects.
DIS TRIBUTION
Terconazole is highly protein bound (94.9%) in human plasma and the
degree of binding is independent
of drug concentration over the range of 0.01 to 5 mcg/mL.
