I've heard that gabapentin has a shelf life of five years after expiration. Most pharmacists have to put a earlier expiration date on them however. And even if gabapentin is expired they pose no risk. It is not reviewed for medical accuracy and should not replace professional medical advice. I got an old bottle of Gabapentin mixed up with my recently filled bottle, took pills that were 2 years expired for about 3 days and noticed that I didn’t sleep as well. We would like to show you a description here but the site won’t allow us. When it comes to gabapentin, a medication commonly used to treat conditions such as epilepsy and neuropathic pain, it is advisable to adhere to the expiration date. The effectiveness and safety of gabapentin may be compromised if used after the expiration date. Expiration dates rarely mean the drug is no longer active , it just is no longer allowed to be pushed past the date for sales/distribution. I used to work for a doctor that would use medication that expired in 2006 in like 2019. Most medicines last far beyond the listed expiration date. The army studied this in preparation for WWIII as part of what medicines to stockpile, etc., and to know how long in pharmacy supplies would last for survivors in a nuked wasteland. If the expiry was exactly 1 year or 6 months from the prescription date, I'd suspect it's the expiration of the script, not the capsules. You can always call the clinic and see how they notate on their scripts. Yes, expired medications can lose efficacy, though some rarely can become dangerous after expiration. Gabapentin would be the former. Gabapentin may cause side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and dizziness. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and seek medical attention if experiencing serious side effects or changes in mood or behavior. Gabapentin is prescribed by healthcare professionals and should only be taken under medical supervision. EXPIRATION DATES ARE PUT ON PILL BOTTLES FOR A REASON - THE PILLS HAVE EXPIRED. THROW THEM AWAY. GABAPENTIN is a potent anti-seizure drug with a loading dose. You cannot just dump an expired gabapentin pill into your body and expect it to work without some danger! Call your pharmacist if you don't believe me!!! So I got prescribed gabapentin in 2018 for phenibut withdrawals. I only used a few of them, and still have a ton left. I haven’t used them since. I’ve been having some leg shakiness and stuff, which my doctor things is purely anxiety related. Generally, the expiration date of gabapentin after manufacture is usually 2 to 3 years. After dispensing by a pharmacy to the patient, the expiration date is generally set at 1 year (from the date of dispensing). The vet gave me gabapentin last year to do this, I haven’t used it in a couple months. When I went to go grab the bottle earlier, it says it expired in September, 2023. Is it still okay to use, 5 ish months past the expiration? Yea they might be at 80-90% potency but probably still very much usable. In those conditions, I’d say that Most (if not all) hasn’t expired yet. Typically, it’s loose pills in a humid place that would lose potency. Recreational use should go as follows: 600mg as a starter dose 300mg every 30 minutes until desired state. I have hundreds of 800mg Gabas that I don't take anymore but still get prescribed. I asked about this and the Doc said the expiration date is pretty much a law that has to be applied and as long as they haven't gotten damp or wet that should still be fine It has a shelf life of 5 years, and since the date on you med is different than the bottle that the pills were taking from—You drug should be good until 2019–. Is it still good to take? Hi friends. I’m taking gabapentin as prescribed but I’m trying to taper off of it. I have been taking pills from 2019 for the last four months (long story). I just got a new script though and I need to start the new pills but I’m concerned that even at the same dose it will be more potent and maybe give me a bad time (I’m sensitive). Pharmacists of reddit, I come to you with questions about medicines and expiration dates. Are some medicines labeled with expiration dates just because of legal obligation? For example, canned goods have expiration dates of a couple years, when its common knowledge they can be safely consumed 5+ years later if stored properly. Greetings, all!
