Hello, Angvil! How are you?

No, liquid medications tend to degrade much faster than others forms, plus they may actually turn and could make you ill, if you take it. It would be best to dispose of it and see your doctor for a new prescription, if you need to take it.

Cheratussin AC is classified by the FDA a narcotic cough suppressant. It carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, constipation and dry mouth.

Expired Cheratussin AC; expired March 2013. Now it's March 2017. Aside from potency, should I be concerned about taking it?
