Drug expiry debate: the myth and the reality
As long as these products are stored properly, the contents are good for a long time past any printed date.
But as i said in the posts before (and I notice you never answered any of my questions there), if you know better than the info the NIH.gov and Harvard Medical School (the previous article I shared) has available, you should publish your findings and maybe make a lot of money as well as win some very prestigious awards for your contribution to the advancement of science and medicine.
This article is interesting:
Did you think the product suddenly went from 100% good one day, then the clock stuck midnight the next day and it suddenly went bad?
You need to understand the dates are about legal issues and liability, NOT some magical moment the product goes "bad."
