I would not use them at all. Antibiotics especially start to break down almost as soon as they are made....that expiration date is there for a reason, because by then there simply is no benefit in them.

usually it depends on the type of antibiotic but to be on the safe side i would say no longer than a month past due date if you've already ingested some keep an eye out for strange symptoms and see a doctor in case they arrise

You probably really shouldn't use them after they have expired. A lot of medications can be more harmful after they've expired because the concentration can get stronger and become dangerous.

You shouldn't. They just won't work.
