Question : Hi, what can I do to flush a prescription drug out of my system fast? The side effects are too strong
Brief Answer:
Depends on many factors
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The only sure way to eliminate a drug from body is by vomiting it out or by gastric lavage within 6 hours of intake.
If 6 hours have elapsed, then it will need to be flushed out by drinking lots of water, taking an antidote, symptom management.
Which medicine did you take at what dose and what time? What are the symptoms you rare experiencing?
Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
