How long before Taltz is out of my system

[Fred]

Personally I wouldn't stop the treatment, but that is the choice you and your dermatologist have to make.

I found sunlight effected my eyes when on Stelara and I have recently asked if others have the same problem with Tremfya [thread=6779]

As for how long to get it out of your system, Mata once explained the term "Half Life" I don't fully understand it to be honest but the Half Life of Taltz is 13 days. To me that means there is only half of it in your body, then it would be 6.5, then 3.25, then 1.6, or thereabouts, then .8.

So Jim's guess of around a month is just over. *But I'm no expert.

I read with half life that if 13 days have passed only 50% of the drug is still in your body,
Then it will take another 13 days to reduce to half of 50%, thus 25%
Then another 13 days, to get to 12,5%

And So on.

Below a given percentage it will not work anymore and with an even lower percentage it will not be detectable anymore.

That makes more sense than what I was thinking.
