If something has expired, there's a good chance that they're no good. If it's one day after expiration date, it should be fine. A month, however, I don't think so.

Would you risk it?

Would be okay to take start a pack of birth control pills that expire this month?

If the expiration date will come before you finish the pack of pills you would be better off getting a new pack. If the pill states it expires 01/14/13 don't take any pills after 01/13/13. If the pack expires 01/2013 you can take the pills until 01/31/2013. When medication becomes old and hits it's expiration it can lose it's potency, something you don't want to happen with birth control! If these pills were purchased recently you can return them for a new pack.

yes because you can get pregnant while on the pill...ANS#2: We have very strict control over all of the oral contraceptives we make at my plant. We test them after retention for varying lengths of time and they need to pass the test in order to get an expiration date. If they would last longer than the expiration date, we'd put a later date on them. If we say you can't trust them after a certain time, we mean it.Pitch them and get your 'scrip re-filled...unless you want a baby.
