A member asked:
I weigh 90kg & have been on tamsulosin for 3 wks to help kidney stone pass. no longer need to take it - how long before it is fully out of my system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tamsulosin: generally medication is cleared from the system and for half-lives. with a half-life of 15 hours that means tamsulosin should be cleared from your system within three days
