Old open gea?

[Daddy Rabbit]

If a vial has been opened and say it's half full but havn't been used in 3-4 yrs is it still ok to use?

I have several half used vials that Id like to continue to use.

Are they still good?
Or would you all trash them?

I'd still like to use it but I didn't know if it would be any good as in having bacteria growing in it.
I haven't pinned anything out of them since 2019
Plus they've been sandwich bag in a sock draw out of direct sunlight.

2019 was 6 years ago, not 3-4 years ago.

They could be fine, they could be not fine. We don’t know.

Gear is cheap enough that I wouldn’t chance it but to each their own.

I wouldn't risk an abscess infection to save $40/50, if they were ampoules it would be "maybe safer", but a multidose (maybe without a cap), there is the risk that bacteria have entered

if you are capable you could re-filter in a new vial eventually
