代谢
广泛在肝脏通过脱羧(主要途径)、脱甲基和侧链氧化代谢。代谢物包括一个N-氧化物衍生物(弱活性;约占总剂量的12%)和一个N-去甲基代谢物(无活性;约占总剂量的16%)。大约50%的剂量通过脱羧转化为其他无活性的代谢物。肝脏微粒体酶似乎不参与佐匹克隆的清除。
Extensively metabolized in the liver via decarboxylation (major pathway), demethylation, and side chain oxidation. Metabolites include an N-oxide derivative (weakly active; approximately 12% of a dose) and an N-desmethyl metabolite (inactive; approximately 16%). Approximately 50% of a dose is converted to other inactive metabolites via decarboxylation. Hepatic microsomal enzymes are apparently not involved in zopiclone clearance.
