I had to stop Imbruvica on Tuesday so I could take Paxlovid for Covid from Wednesday-Sunday. These two meds shouldn’t be taken together. I just took my last dose of Paxlovid. I want to restart Imbruvica, but am wondering how long it takes for Paxlovid to clear the body. Has anybody had experience with this? Many thanks.

I went back to Ibruitnib the following day from when I finished the Paxlovid. Paxlovid has a very short half life, 2 ish hours from memory.
When I asked my regular doctor, who then asked my nurse oncologist, they were not certain if I should wait a day or two days. And I could not find on-line the precise answer to how long it takes for Paxlovid to clear the body. So I thought the voices of experience would be helpful.
Dogmom, my post from a couple of weeks ago has links to "official" recommendations for restarting ibrutinib 2 or 3 days after stopping paxlovid.
