expired menthol sore throat drops?!
Question: Expired menthol sore throat drops?
so i took an expired sore throat drop, it was like 6 months old. it has nothing but menthol in it, but i was wondering, can expired menthol do anything to you? i know it would of already done it if so, cus it was like 2 days ago, but is there anything that COULD go wrong with it, like make you sick? if it gets old enough?
i asked my brother, whos a pharmacy tech, and he said it was fine, but didnt know if it could do anything if it gets older..
so yeah... thats about it.
thanks.

Answers:
Those drops are mostly sugar. Does candy really expire? No. So unless you see mold or fungus growing on them, you don't have a problem.
It's okay, but you might want to replace them.
