I have an unopened bottle of voltaren eye drops with an expiry date of October 2010. I just ran out of the Voltaren I am using and have a new prescription to get some more and don't have the money at this time to fill it. Would it be safe to use this unopened bottle as I have read that most medications are really good for 5 years after expiry and drug companies just put the expiry dates on so people will throw them away.
Thanks for the reply! Still curious about any micro holes which could start forming after the expiry date? Or that's not the possibility...its just the risk of breakage after the expiry date?
before I do so I was told that was purchased years ago.whether it is within the expiry date?
t broke but i am not sure if it had any small hole or something in it. it is important to say that it was latex condom and was not expired. its expiration date is 2014 i checked it. but i had the following symptoms:
mild fever for 2 days
weight loss about 2 kg
dry mouth and white tongue
bad headache
neck stiffness
rash on my chest
i had these symptoms for 10 days and i am o.k now. i took a rapid test after 25 days and it was negative. doctor said to me that there is not need for another test.
Hi I'm a female living in the UK and me and my boyfriend have just started having sex. We always use condoms but I'm really worried because once we used a condom that was near it's expiry date. It was not very weak and we didn't use it for long and after I checked whether it had broken and it hadn't. BUT I'm still worried bcos it was near it's expiry date. He did not ejaculate at all while using the condom but there still might have been traces of precum.
If you are asking about premixed insulin or any other type of insulin, the pen that you are using should be kept in room temperature which is good for 28 days.
Its hard to say for sure what the effects on the medication the expiry date has but i know with tylenol for example its not gonna be contaminated but it may not have the correct strength left in it... not saying if its expired you take more its jsut that it may not be as effective or it may be fine(you just dont know)...
Thanks diver so i really don't need to do a test after three months & you mean even if the condom was expired it wasnt a risk right..?
I have only noticed that Ribavirin capsules that pharmacy gave me for 3 months have expiry of October 2014. If I start taking drugs on 15 August, it means 3 packs of Ribavirin will become expired during my treatment, as I will take them till November 15. Should I request pharmacy to change portion of packs?
My doctor told me the delayed ejaculation is common with 50 mg dosage of Sildenafil and he said that Sildenafil 25 mg should be adequate and will not lead to delayed ejaculation.
I don't smoke and have no other major health problems. Is it useful to have intercourse 3-4 hours after taking the pill (25 mg), to slightly reduce the effect of the pill on ejaculation ?
Appreciate any advice related to this, thanks in advance !
I tried sildenafil and tadalafil and both worked very well only a few first times - later the was a small or sometimes no response. My testosterone is high (810) and no smoking, not overweight, blood work works O.K.
I'm 56 years old. Any suggestions?
Hepatic Impairment
In volunteers with hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class A and B), sildenafil clearance was reduced, resulting in higher plasma exposure of sildenafil (47% for Cmax and 85% for AUC). The pharmacokinetics of sildenafil in patients with severely impaired hepatic function (Child-Pugh Class C) have not been studied. A starting dose of 25 mg should be considered in patients with any degree of hepatic impairment [see Dosage and Administration (2.5) and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
