It's like disgarding a carton of milk exactly on the "Sell Before" date. The expiration date is an indication that the potency or efficiency of the product is fast wearing out. In the case of milk you can taste or smell the result of letting it sit too long. In vitamins, you're losing some of their potential. Unless the vitamin looks melted or discolored, there is probably no reason why you cannot take them. Even pain killers lose potency, but are still usable.
