IS THIS MEDICINE STILL EFFECTIVE & SAFE TO TAKE NOW ?

It doesn't get dangerous, once it's expired, but it has most likely started to lose some efficacy and won't work as well.
The best thing to do would be to dispose of them and pick up some new capsules that would be fully effective.
Is there anything else I can help with?
If a medication expires April 2013, does it mean beginning of April or end of April?
My Omeprazole was issued on 12/3/2013; it is now two years later. I read in one study, Omeprazole lost 10% effectiveness at 180 days (not exposed to light, kept at Rh 50% and ~70 degrees F...very similar conditions for my pills). What is the effectiveness or degradation at two years? Would the calculation be linear or a curve? Can you point me to other longer degradation studies (white papers)?
