I just read on a Fibromyalgia site that Adams Pharmeceutical did testing showing full strength in guaifenesin 10 yrs after expiration date, and probably very little reduction after that. This assumes proper storage.
It is not safe to take expired medication.
It is not recommended that you take a medication after it's expiration date. Therefore nutrofurantoin-macro will not still be effective for treating an UTI after the expiration date.
I just realized mine was a year past the expiration date, they still seem to be effective.
Yes medical research has shown that Zantac (Ranitidine) is still effective up to 1.5 years after expiration date. After that it begins to lose some of its potency. Like canned food with expiration dates as long as the package is sealed and properly stored it lasts well beyond the expiration date.
It is best not to use any drug after its expiration date. Expiration dates are meant to reflect the stable shelf life of a medication. After this point, it may not be effective, or worse, it may contain harmful breakdown products.
The expiration date is there so you know an approximate date when it should not be used. Three days before an expiration wouldn't do harm, a day or two after expiration might not do harm either, but avoid using vaccines (or any medications) that are after their expiration date.
Medication should not be used after the expiration date printed on the label. After the expiration medicine can lose its potency which can be very dangerous.
Maalox is no longer any good after the expiration date. When the expiration date has passed it means that it is no longer as effective as it once was.
Hand sanitizer may become less effective over time as the alcohol content can evaporate or degrade, reducing its ability to kill germs. An expiration date helps ensure that the product is still safe and effective to use. It is always recommended to check the expiration date before using hand sanitizer.
Hi, Unlikely. Pills pass there expiration date can not be used because they usually lose there effectiveness.
diet pills after expiration

They can last forever. The only problem with using them past the expiration date is the longer the inhaler goes past the expiration date the less effective the medication will be.
