question on expiration date

[DepressiveJuice]

i have some old EQ bottles that have been expired for five months. are they still safe to use them? and what would their potency be?

 

[GawdsGift]

they are probably still good, try it out, whats the harm in trying, i mean do you really just want to throw them away?>

every year after expiration gear loses about 20% of it's potency

5 months should be cool. It will loose potency gradually after the date, but 5 mths isn't all that bad. If you can, bump the dose up a little to offset it.

I don't know man. There was a study done on this. I saw it the other day on CNN. The US military had a bunch of expired drugs and they wanted to know if they were really no good. It was determined that most drugs were fine 9 years past the printed expiration date. The FDA is looking into redsigning the whole "expiration date" thing. Personally, I think that expiration dates are, for the most part, a marketing ploy.

I agree.
It Definetely does not lose 20% of its potency every year.
If its unopened and stored properly you wont notice a difference.
Still just as good as new IMO.
