Pharmacokinetics. Absorption — high, bioavailability — about 100%. Communication with proteins of plasma — 12%. The maximum concentration in a blood plasma is reached after intake of 2 g — 40-51 mkg/ml, in 24 h — 11-19 mkg/ml, in 72 h — 1 mkg/ml. The maximum concentration is reached in 2 h. Distribution volume — 50 l. Gets through a blood-brain barrier, a placenta.

It is allocated with breast milk during 72 h after reception. It is metabolized in a liver with formation pharmacological of active hydroxylated derivatives which suppress growth of anaerobic microorganisms and can strengthen action of Tinidazolum.
