Yes, the injections are still good.  My own neuro actually gave me some expired trex injection samples herself.  It works just the same.  I'm not sure about the NS though, maybe someone else can answer that.
 
take care,

Religion and sex are powerplays. Manipulate the people for the money they pay. Selling skin, selling God, the numbers look the same on their credit cards. Triptans cause rebounds. Learn it, believe it, live it. I use triptans as the absolute LAST RESORT when treating my CH.

Agreed!

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Ditto.  They might lose some effectiveness over time, but never become toxic or harmful.
