Mine is labled for an expiration of about 6 months, but I am sure it is good for longer than that.

It can last a couple of years if kept in the right environment.

I think it can be a safe assumption that a lot of drugs can be used past their expiration date. The manufacturer is going to give themselves some wiggle room. But in the case of an injectable, take for instance Deca or whatever, while the nandrolone might still be effective maybe the preservatives are not. In other words its sterility may be in question. This is how I've always viewed it.

Bump for a chemist's answer.

I think genarr4 is correct on this one.

I used to have 75 grams of methandrostenolone (Dianabol) in powder form in a bulk bag. I got myself a small capsulator and an accurate measuring device for making 10mg tabs for me and a couple buds.

I wasn't sure how long it would last, I emailed Bill Roberts and he said shelf life was 'probably decades', that assumed it was in a cool dark room. I know this is my only source, but this guy knows his gear, and you probably agree. That's why I think this is true for now.

Moving on, if manufacturers say 6 months, then it most likely is an issue of sterility, because it sure isn't the hormone itself.

I've always believed that test was typically good to use for 2-3 yrs before the expiration date kicked in.

If it's not opened it will be good for a couple of years after exp. date.
It may loose 10 % poteancy per year after exp. date.
