Medications do lose effectiveness over time, so it may not work as well as it did, when new. It would be best to dispose of the expired patches and obtain a new supply.

The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
