A member asked:
I've been taking tetracylsal for acne the past two weeks, my boyfriend and i are wanting to try for a baby, how long does it take tablets to leave sys?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
About 20-24 hours: The half life of the medicine is 10 hours,so only 1/2 of a dose taken at noon would be out of the system by 10 PM and the remaining would gradually be metabolized or excreted in the next 10 or so hours.
