Does Hydrocodone REALLY Expire?!
Question: Does Hydrocodone REALLY Expire!?
I was moving these past few days and found some Hydrocodone that says it expires in April 06 - I'm not really worried if it would still be "safe" to take, but would it still work!?!?
Any information you have on this would be helpful, thanks!.

My doctor told me that she keeps all her expired stuff for two years after the expiration date (things like pain meds) and if they still appear to work when she takes them, she doesn't throw them out!. Other meds can change their composition over time, and therefore should be thrown out, but she assured me that the Vicodin was fine (I had some left over from surgery) to hang on to!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
you should be worried about whether or not it is safe!. the drug may stop working but it also may be harmful and it is a bad idea to take an expired pill!. if you have a need for the medicine (which i doubt you do) then you should have an adequate supply from your doctor and shouldnt have to worry about thisWww@Answer-Health@Com
you'll be fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
