Most everything lasts a while past expiration before deterioration, including food. Expiration dates have a margin of safety built in. That being said, the above is true, but vitamins usually have way more that anyone needs in them so a little deterioration in potency isn't that big a deal depending on why you're taking them. After all, much of them just goes down the toilet anyway, so again, a margin of safety is built in there, too.
You may want to check and see if there is an expiration date. Even if the expiration date is past, there are still okay to use as the expiration date is for the packaging.
Good luck.
These were precribed to me but I noticed the bottle expiration date is 10/2008. I have almost full bottles so I haven't thrown them out. Can I consider these safe? My husband says yes.
For liquid medicine you should never, ever risk taking it after the expiration date. Not only will it be less effective, but it can also begin to grow bacteria which can infect the lining of your digestive tract. This can be very dangerous.
I know it seems that medicines have expiration dates just to make you spend more money, but that is actually not the case. If you think you will not use your prescription for a year, it is best not to fill it until you need it.
So I just noticed that my last two packs of pills have the expiration date of 7/2009. Im supposed to start one of the packs this sunday, and that means I will be taking 4 days of expired pills (the first four days of July). Will this be risky? I called planned parenthood and they said I would be fine...and that I can't come in and get new packs since I have two...I'm a little scared these pills won't work since its so close to the expiration date!!

Hello,
Since the cream has reached beyond its expiry date, I would suggest you not to use it because it may cause irritant contact dermatitis. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.

From what I have read the only issue with exceeding the expiration date is maybe less potency. In your situation, I wouldn't worry about the date.
Can you get a prescription for Armour? If so, I have a potential source for you, in Canada.
I hade vaginal intercourse, she brought the condom. I didn't check the expiration date on the Trojan. It remained intact.
Any concern?
I agree with aaron n sophia, the warning label not being there isn't so much of a concern (unless you can't see the expiration date on it), I'd be more concerned of an accident previously. They can look perfect and still have been in an accident, that and the crib are what my doctor told me to make sure I didn't buy 2nd hand, they're most important!
Car seats actually have an expiration date on them, I'm not sure how long they are good for though. The hospital will check the seat and will not let you take your baby home in it if it's expired. Some hospitals give we car seats if you ask for one.
