How long does it take for them to clear from your system.. I was on 20mg post transplant and then went down gradually to 5mg and this was stopped on Friday ? :)

Hi Mel. I was told only 24 hours. Good news you are having your meds reduced :-) :-)

Hi Mel,

Yes as Alfred said, half life is only 2-3 hours so in 24hrs most of it will have cleared out of your system.

Always good news where they are comfortable reducing your drugs - all the very best.

Not what you're looking for?
