The longer you have them, the weaker they get. This starts immediately after you open them. By the time the expiration date comes--if you haven't finished them, toss them. They are no longer any good.

I wouldn't think it would be such a big deal if it were a month or so....longer? Then trash it! They give expiration dates for a reason!

When it comes to medicines, I can tell you sometimes the potency increases rapidly and you can OD on it.

Be careful...use your head. :)

the further from the expiration date, the less potent they are.
