Hi ,
If you have given 1 month gap after stopping medicine , you can try for pregnancy. Usually these medicines are excreted from body within few days , to be on safer side leave 1 month. Maximum problem is if you take it during pregnancy, when the baby is growing.
Do start Folic acid tablets 1 month before trying for pregnancy,to avoid fetal problems. This is independent of tetralysal.
Am sure I have clarified your query, do write back if any more queries
All the best
