Effect of Food:
There was no clinically significant effect on finerenone AUC following administration with high fat, high calorie food.
Distribution:
The volume of distribution at steady-state (Vss) of finerenone is 52.6 L. Plasma protein binding of finerenone is 92 %, primarily to serum albumin, in vitro.
Elimination:
The terminal half-life of finerenone is about 2 to 3 hours, and the systemic blood clearance is about 25 L/h.

Finerenone is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 (90 %) and to a lesser extent by CYP2C8 (10 %) to inactive metabolites.
