no don't worry, medicine takes a while to expire and that wasn't TOO long ago. you wont notice anything and it should work just as if it were new(almost)

3/07......def not you can get sick w/ certain medications being that old but that is just an advil and if you happen to get alittle dizzy or something it is probaly just all in your head from knowing that it has expired (anxiety). You'll be totally fine! =)

Nope - those expirations dates mean the potency could be smaller. So, if there are any changes in the meds it would be that they wouldn't work as well.

You won't get sick, but chances are that your medicine won't be as effective as when it's new.

NO, It just does not work as well as it should. You should always keep your drugs fresh.

NO, you won't get sick; it's not that much out-of-date
