My tutor showed up today looking very sleepy. He almost fell asleep and told me he has a bad headache. I got him some pepper mint oil and offered ibuprophen . He refused additional meds but used the oil; and went on to explain that he thought the Tylenol he took earlier for a stomach ache was expiried. thanks...

he's a tutor not a doctor. expired meds just loose their potency. they aren't dangerous they just don't work quite as well. people in Africa have been treated with slightly "expired" meds for many years and yes they work.

not its not dangerous but it may now work to its potential-also you dont take tylenol for a stomach ache -that was his first mistake
