The answer is; Liver, kidney

The liver is a significant organ of detoxification of the body. The xenobiotic biotransforming enzymes in the liver breakdown and oxidize/ reduce and hydrolyze toxins and make them less effective.

When the liver break down the toxin to less harmful metabolites, these molecules are filtered out by the kidney and excreted outside the body with urine.
