[quote=Young Guns;1211893]If its been frozen It should be good to eat. If its just been sitting in the refrigerator don't do it! Ive actually had the same thing happen to me tonight. I have some cold medication pills that expired 5 months ago. Should I or shouldn't I?[/quote]
No, now the cold medications won't hurt you, but odds are, they have lost their effectiveness. So then they will not work or they will certainly not work as well, you will take more to make them work, and your body will get used to them, so that in the future, even the new stuff won't be as effective. This is how germs become resistant to all forms of medications. You expose germs to a bit of medication here, a bit of medication there, and they become immune to medication over time.
Like really you guys, or gals, why do you have all that old stuff around? Especially medications? Chuck it.
