August 2013 July 2013 June 2013 May 2013 April 2013 March 2013 February 2013		Family Pharmacy The Truth About Drug Expiration Dates Ever tossed a half-full bottle of antibiotics or aspirin into the trash because the label said it was past the expiration date? Turns out, drugs and painkillers are effective far longer than the label on the bottle would lead you to believe, says Harvard Medical School's Family Health Guide. Most of what we know about drug effectiveness comes from military research in the 90s. According to the Wall Street Journal, between 1993 and 1998 the military commissioned the FDA to test more than 100 drugs. They found 90 percent of both prescription and over-the-counter medications were safe and effective well past their expiration dates–some as much as eight to fifteen years longer. As of 2008, as many as 312 medications had been tested, with findings remaining consistent. So, what's that expiration date good for? To keep the packaging in compliance with a 1979 federal law, which requires manufacturers to stamp the date at which they will guarantee the product is fully potent. Rest assured, the date has nothing to do with a drug's changing properties, only its potency. If you happen to ingest an expired medication, it's unlikely you will gain superpowers or start the zombie-pocalypse. And if you have any concerns about a specific medication, just bring the container to your local pharmacist who is a great free resource for exactly this kind of information.
