Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX good to hear from you again.

Solian has a half-life of 12-24 hours, depending on an individual's metabolism. It takes about 5 half-lives of a drug in terms of time for the drug to be eliminated. Therefore, it should take no more than 5 days for Solian to be completely out of your system. You may experience withdrawal effects for a few days after this, such as insomnia or anxiety, but these effects are very short-lived and should go away quickly.
