How does a twenty four hour medication stay in your system without being flushed out?

Medication in your blood stream is flushed out through your kidneys or by your liver into your digestive tract. Your kidneys usually do not remove large compounds from your blood stream, but small ones. By having the active particle in the medicine larger than the particles the kidneys remove from the blood stream, the kidneys will not flush out the medicine. Sometimes this is done by pegylating the medicine particle. That simply adds a propylene glycol particle to the medicine particle. When the medicine gets to where it is needed, the peg drops off. Eventually the pegs drop off and the medicine is either used or eliminated.
