Reblogged from Science-Based Pharmacy:
Is is safe to take expired drugs? Are they still effective? Consider this scenario:
You're in good health and take no prescription drugs. You use the following remedies occasionally:
- Excedrin for the rare migraine
- Arnica 30CH for bumps and bruises
- Echinacea capsules, when you feel a cold coming on
Today you look in your cupboard, and notice all three products expired last year.
are expired drugs safe, effective and alright to take? how are expired drugs disposed of?
