Is it safe to take expired sudafed medicine from 02/2006?


Question:
would it be safe to take expired sudafed medicine from 02/2006? its all sealed, but it's expired. It's only 7 months old, and I really need some, since I can't get a new box yet.

Would it have any bad side effects?

serious answers only, please.

Thanks!

Answers:
no, it is proven in some circles that prescription medicine and over the counter stuff too doesn't go bad but the experation dates are simply to sell more product and help make the pharmacetical industry youp you guessed it more rich!

take the pills you'll be fine
I think I've heard that you can take them up to a year after they are expired. I don't think it would have any bad side effects but I wouldn't take them for very long... Get a new pack soon
