The effects of a scopolamine patch can last for 12-24 hours after removal, but the drug itself has a half-life of approximately 9.5 hours, meaning that it takes about 9.5 hours for the amount of scopolamine in the body to reduce by half. While the most noticeable effects may subside within a day or two, trace amounts of scopolamine can remain detectable in the body for a few days after the patch is removed. This can vary depending on factors like dosage, individual metabolism, and the specific tests used for detection.
