How Long Does Lovastatin Stay In The System?
how long to get lovastatin out of your system. My stupid NP prescribed it for high cholesterol. I also take dilantin for seizures. I have been feeling really weird for the last week, like a seizure aura...I have been taking the lovastatin for only 3 weeks. Then I did online research and discovered there is serious contraindication for lovastatin and dilantin....I stopped taking lovastatin 2 days ago but am still having weird, deju vu, eery, surreal aura feeling.

half life of lovo is 4-5 hours.
half is gone in that time. Usually takes 4-5 half lives to almost totally eliminate a drug from the body, so 5 X 5 = 25 hours.
