The ones I have expired 10/2015. A co-worker gave them to me because I had always had an aching back after work. I never found them helpful in easing my pain. So I just kept them. Now they are very old. Should I just throw them away?
How long is a Lidoderm patch active after expiration date, if the envelope has never been opened?

if they don't work, don't use them. Seems obvious to me.

Hi Nicki, Those are pretty old so at the least have lost efficacy by now. You can see what Pharmaceutical Co makes them and call to check if you want. I’ve used them and not found them to be so great. My Doctor told me they are for pain relief very near the surface so for deeper muscle pain, eh. Hope this helps.
