Outdated or Expired Medications are always a question at the doctor's office, especially when a patient is on a weekend outing away from major retail stores, they ask can this medication "still" be taken? It's a great question! Many studies have shown that tablets and capsules even 10 years are greater than 88% effective. Longer shelf lives of medications sitting in your cabinets loose their potency and efficacy.
A Law was passed in 1979 for pharmaceutical drug manufactures to require a date to 'guarantee' full potency and safety. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (Drug expiry debate:the myth and the reality- PMC)
The Shelf Life Extension Program (SLEP) was started by the FDA for the Department of Defense to order to help cut costs https://www.fda.gov/emergency-preparedness-and-response/mcm-legal-regulatory-and-policy-framework/expiration-dating-extension
SLEP is used in order for preparedness for our military and natural disasters like earthquakes, viral outbreaks, hurricanes, tornados and more. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) oversees the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS). In helping to prepare for natural emergencies it is also what brings Emergency Use guidelines, we all remember that from COVID.
