becomes gradually less reactive

Based on the following explanation of kinetic stability/instability.

Chemical Stability
www.avogadro.co.uk/brief_topics/stability.htm
So, chemical stability, or 'resistance to change', has two meanings. It must be considered in terms of both kinetic stability and thermodynamic stability. Just because a system is thermodynamically unstable (like H2(g) and O2(g)) does not mean it will react. It is not kinetically unstable

The metabolism of drugs occurs through basic chemical reactions as soon as the administered compound comes into contact with enzymes that are capable of altering its chemical structure. ... The main chemical reactions that affect the stability of a drug are oxidation and hydrolysis.

goes through (several) minor stages

An option.

The exact meaning of "reducidos" in the original isn't all that clear. Perhaps "goes through several brief/short stages" might be a better option.

3rd time lucky: Now I think they may mean "reduction stages", but if so, the original is either badly drafted or possibly a mistranslation.
