Question : my doctor has told me to stop taking candesartin, how long will it take to clear my system

Answered by Dr. Grzegorz Stanko (13 minutes later)

Hello!

Thank you for the query.

This medicine is cleared with urine and stool and a half life time is about 9 hours. It means that after 9 hours the half of it will be gone. It should take about 24 hours to clear it completely.

Hope this will help. Feel free to ask further questions.
Regards.
