Shelf life of IMITREX (Read 1988 times)

Bluestreak CH.com Newbie Offline CH's suck Posts: 5 portland or Gender:	Shelf life of IMITREX Aug 19^th, 2015 at 8:09pm Hello all, After 2 years PF, looks like I am about to start another cycle. I found great relief using oxygen during the last cycle, however, have to use IMITREX as an abortive on occasion. I have some IMITREX injectable, however, it is several years old. Anyone have any information on how long if can be stored and safely used? Thanks.

I've got some that's been around for a long time, but keep it (in case). If you think you might be going to get hit, you might check on the D3 regimen BEFORE it happens. That's worked to PREVENT CH for a lot of us.

But as to your question - I wouldn't throw the Trex out if I were you. Some on here have reported using it way after it's gone out of date. Kiss

No issues or anything out of the ordinary. That's just my experience, I'm not a doctor nor do I play one on tv

It's incredibly rare to find a drug that expires. What expires is the amount of time drug companies are protected by liability insurance related to their products. Promoting the idea of expiration is also one more way evil drug companies have to separate you from your money.

I have quite a stash of old prescription drugs in which I'm very confident. It was handy having access to muscle relaxant that I used more than ten years ago. Worked just fine.

Don't worry.

Military had a stockpile of one billion dollars worth of "expired" drugs. They decided to make some carefully run tests and discovered that after 15 years on the shelf 90% of the drugs were still perfectly viable.
