<br>
Following administration of a single IV 100-mg dose of [14C]-aprepitant prodrug
to healthy subjects, 57% of the radioactivity was recovered in urine and 45% in
feces. A study was not conducted with radiolabeled capsule formulation.<br>
<br>
Does this mean that 43% is excreted in urine and 55% in feces?<br>

This is a drug used by cancer patients for nausea control. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
