Brief Answer:
Not more than a week!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you experienced. Because you took it for such a short duration, there would be very little reasons to suggest that the effects would last for longer. They should normally disappear within a week. I encourage you to monitor and report any persistence after a week or new symptoms to me. All would rapidly return to normal with respect too this drug.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications. Thanks for trusting using with your health questions today!
