It is never a good idea to take expired medication.
Expired medication can be ineffective and dangerous.
Expired medicines should ALWAYS be thrown out. They are relatively inexpensive to replace and not worth the risk of taking an expired medication.
Generally speaking it is safe to take expired medication. However, it should be noted that the concentration of active ingredient in the medication is likely to be reduced. For certain drugs (anti-seizure medications, antibiotics, others), this may be dangerous. In the case of ultracet, the expired medication will likely be less effective, though not dangerous. Because there is no way to quantify the degree to which the medication has decomposed, do not take additional tablets in an effort to achieve a "full dose." That would be dangerous.
No! You shouldn't give expired meds to your dog!
You are most likely not going to get sick from taking expired medication ... BUT ... you are not getting the full intended dose of the medication if the date has expired. Medications lose their potency over time and therefore lose their effectiveness in curing the ailment.
it says the expiration date
No you cant
It is not recommended to take any medication past the expiration date that is printed on it. The Metronidazole will have a date on it. After that date, it could be dangerous to take the medication and it probably won't work to help the person at all.
yes
No It is never safe to take medication that has gone past its expiry date
As with anything, be it drugs, food or drink, you should not take them if they are out of date. The date is on the packet for your safety, and you could suffer adverse effects from taking out of date medication.
