Taking expired nitrofurantoin is not recommended, as the effectiveness of the medication may be reduced, and it could potentially lead to inadequate treatment of infections. While some medications may retain potency past their expiration date, nitrofurantoin specifically has a risk of toxicity when expired. It's best to consult a healthcare professional for alternatives or replacements if you have expired medication. Always prioritize safety and efficacy when it comes to medications.
