Clevidipine is a high clearance drug, which is rapidly metabolized to the corresponding inactive acid. The tmax value of the primary metabolite, and a virtually identical value of the initial half-life and the half-life for elimination from the central compartment, indicate that the initial rapid decline of the post-infusion blood levels is mainly due to elimination rather than distribution. The duration of action of clevidipine is short.
