First I need to know about verapamil. Should I taper off of this drug if I decide to stop using it.

How long will it take for the drug to get out of my system if I stopped taking it for a few days.

Are there any negatives to stopping and then restarting the drug?

Secondly, about how long will it take for Imitrex and/or Maxalt to get out of my system after it is used?

I ask these questions, because there is something I need to do, and it was suggested to me that I not take other drugs for a period prior to doing what I need to do. I want what I'm doing to work the first time, and just need to know that all or most of the above mentioned meds are gone from my system. Does this make any sense? If not let me know, and I will try to rephrase the questions.
thanks,
Ike
