Fair enough. What is the shelf life of these anyway?

I'm going to assume pretty long, because often medication loses a little of its potency as it goes past the use by date. But losing a little power still makes it worth taking!

Usually the opposite.

I thought I remembered hearing that Anti-B's lasted ages.

One thing that I have always done is to visit the local pharmacy in the various countries that I visit on holidays, in many places you can buy Antibiotics over the counter and so I like to stock up. Though I have never had any with a shelf life beyond 3 years. Even in some European countries where, like the UK, Antibiotics are only available via prescription can sometimes be obtained without one if you visit local pharmacies outwith large Cities and normal tourist areas. Never be afraid to ask to speak with the pharmacist and ask them to provide them for you. The worst that can happen is being told to 'Go Away'...

I've tried this in regards to bodbuilding's "Chemical Nutrition" element haha. For legal reasons, I'm not saying how it went. But.....it went pretty well haha. Next time I'm on a holiday (when my pay doubled) I'm doing it again.
