no Yes, we can. Expired vitamins are unlikely to hurt anyone, but they may not help either because vitamins lose their potency after a certain amount of time on the shelf. It is best to throw them away and buy ones that are in date.

Expired Vitamin C is unlikely to hurt you, but the strength may not be as great as the bottle indicates. Of course, if it has expired, especially if it has been expired for a while, the best thing to do it throw it out and buy more.

Yes, you can. Taking an expired vitamin or supplement is highly unlikely to cause you harm. Unlike food, vitamins don’t go “bad,” nor do they become toxic or poisonous. There haven’t been any documented cases of illness or death resulting from expired vitamins.

Taking expired vitamins should not hurt you. If the vitamins have expired they may be less effective, defeating the whole purpose for taking them.

Yes but they may not be as potent, if at all, since the active ingredients have been broken down. No harm comes from taking them, but you may not get your desired results.

No. Consuming any vitamin or tablet after expiry date is a bad idea. You may have health complications because of it. Throw those expired tablets in the garbage bin
