Selected medications have been tested for their freshness before and after expiration. 90% tested were as potent after expiration as the time it was prescribed. Clopidogrel 75 was potent 2016 when prescribed and still 2017 after exp., now 2020 still potent. Zeta also kept its potency. Lipitor anywhere from 20 to a 50 was still potent. Just keep out of reach of children.
There should be an expiration date on the bottle somewhere. If it is past the expiration date then it is no longer any good. If it is within the date, you are okay.
