do tablets really expire or do they just lose potency? How?
In: Chemistry
It depends heavily on the drug. Some are drug molecules are stable, and will be good for years when properly stored. Some, like epi-pens, will degrade significantly in a few months. And I’m sure there’s some outliers that get stronger or turn toxic. And all bets are off if they aren’t stored properly. Go with the manufacturer’s recommendation.
