I have powder (not reconstituted, not premixed)Bicillin that has an expiration of April 10.
I have found studying online that amoxicillin can be used way beyond the expiration if sealed and stored in a cool dark place.
Does anyone know if (stored in a cool dry place)sealed unopened powder bicillin can be used past the expiration?
I know only that Tetracycline's turn to poison after the expiration and most others just can lose potency. I have also heard many abx really don't expire at all and some expire up to 5 years after the date.
I have found the powder form works better for me than the American premixed shots.
