Xolair (omalizumab) is a biologic medication used to treat conditions like moderate-to-severe persistent asthma, which affects millions worldwide [1.6.2]. A common question for patients is, **how long before Xolair is out of your system?** Due to its long half-life, the process is gradual.

Omalizumab (Xolair) is an injectable biologic medication used to treat several chronic allergic conditions [1.2.1]. The answer to 'What is the onset time for omalizumab?' varies, with some patients seeing improvement in a few weeks and others needing up to 4 months [1.2.2, 1.3.2].

The average elimination half-life of omalizumab is approximately 26 days in patients with asthma and 24 days in patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria [1.2.1, 1.2.5]. This extended half-life allows for infrequent dosing, typically every two or four weeks [1.2.4].
