Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
No medication stays in the body that long.
They all get eliminated in 5 to 6 half lives / a half life is the time in which, the concentration of a substance falls to half the peak value / that is why most medicines are given more than once in a day.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
