I've taken pain killers 2yrs old, they will be fine. If anything at all, they just won't work. But try to replace them soon. Drink lots of water also, sometimes headaches are caused be dehydration.Health Question & Answer

I read an article about a month ago saying the medications would still be okay to take for years after their expiration date. You would have to use your own judgment though.Health Question & Answer
