CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACOKINETICS AND METABOLISM
The pharmacokinetic properties of fluconazole are similar following
administration by the intravenous
or oral routes. In normal volunteers, the bioavailability of orally
administered fluconazole is over 90%
compared with intravenous administration. Bioequivalence was
established between the 100 mg tablet
and both suspension strengths when administered as a single 200 mg
dose.

Peak plasma concentrations (C
) in fasted normal volunteers occur between 1 and 2 hours with a
terminal plasma elimination half-life of approximately 30 hours
(range: 20 to 50 hours) after oral
administration.
In fasted normal volunteers, administration of a single oral 400 mg
dose of fluconazole leads to a mean
C
of 6.72 mcg/mL (range: 4.12 to 8.08 mcg/mL) and after single oral
doses of 50 to 400 mg,
fluconazole plasma concentrations and AUC (area under the plasma
concentration-time curve) are dos
