How Long Do Side Effects Of Medicine Take To Vanish?
Depends entirely on the half life of the medicine
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome.
Every drug or medicine has a property called half life meaning the time it takes to eliminate 50 % of a drug.
if the drug has zero order kinetics then elimination rate is independent of plasma concentration, means these drugs have no fixed half lives. A constant amount of drug is eliminated per unit time. these include ethanol phenytoin and salicylates.
if the drug has 1st order kinetics then rate of elimination depends on plasma level of the drug. most drugs follow 1st order means the higher the amount the greater the elimination.
let me know if you have any query. if not then kindly close the conversation and rate my answer.
thanks. have a nice day.
