Half-lifeThe serum half-life of clorazepate is approximately 2 days. Nordiazepam, the primary metabolite, quickly appears in the blood and is eliminated from the plasma with an apparent half-life of about 40 to 50 hours. PLASMA HALF-LIFE ... 53 HR ... . PRIMARY METABOLITE, NORDIAZEPAM, ... PLASMA HALF-LIFE IS ABOUT 24 HR. N-DIMETHYLDIAZEPAM, METABOLITE OF CHLORAZEPATE: MEAN HALF-LIFE 62 HR. CLORAZEPATE ADMIN IM TO PREGNANT & NONPREGNANT WOMEN. ELIMINATION HALF-LIFE WERE 1.3 HR IN PREGNANT WOMEN & 2.0 HR IN NONPREGNANT WOMEN. ITS METABOLITE, NORDIAZEPAM, REACHED PEAK CONCN WITHIN 12 HR. HALF-LIFE OF ELIMINATION FOR METABOLITE WAS 180 IN PREGNANT & 60 HR IN NONPREGNANT WOMEN. Elimination half-lives for metabolites: desmethyldiazepam (30-200 hr) and oxazepam (3-21 hr)
Protein bindingThe protein binding of nordiazepam (active metabolite of clorazepate) in plasma is high (97-98%).
