gryhndsr4us Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 I just gave Dood a melatonin tablet as we will have fireworks going off tonight for Irish Fest. After I gave him the tablet I noticed the expiration date on the bottle was January. Will it still help?

Remolacha Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 It should, most things are good well past their exp. date and January wasn't that long ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gryhndsr4us Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 Thanks, he really stresses. Sky doesn't like them either but she is fine with just the Thundershirt. Sneakers could care less, he just sleeps.

seeh2o Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 (edited) I wouldn't give it a second thought, if give it without hesitation. I hope it helps!

socalgreys Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Yes, it is still good. Most expiration dates are based on the manufacturers unopened bottle for their own (manufacturers) protection. And to qualm your fears, something like melatonin won't degrade into something harmful. As time goes by, most OTC drugs just lose potency over time. Does that help?
