Depending on how cold it was kept it may last for longer than the best before date. Try and consume it before then though for freshness, but generally after opening you should have 2 months before it goes rancid. Just make sure to keep it in your fridge.

The concern isn't microbiological, but chemical. It will turn rancid faster at room temperature. If it still smells and tastes OK, put it back in the fridge or freezer.
