Shelf Life Of Baclofen (Top voted first)
UpdatedMy son takes Baclofen for muscle spasms. He was feeling much better and quit taking it. He recently started getting the spasms again and my question is what is the shelf life for this med. I have some left over from the last time he used it and was wondering if it is still good. Being Easter weekend there are no doctors open to get a refill.

If it is in a pharmacy dispensed bottle, which exposes it to heat, light, moisture and etc. then the expiration date is one year from whenever it was dispensed.
It doesn't get dangerous past the expiration date, but it does start to lose effectiveness, so it may not work as well as it did when it was new.

Is there anything else I can help with?

The only way to know is to take it and see how effective it is. Sealed drugs in a cool dry place retain at least some if not all of their potency for years, but you have to try it to know for sure.
But I use to take them but I stop for a while and the bottle said discard after 2013. So I'm guessing no good or what.
I left my child's liquid baclofen out of the refridgerator overnight. Will it still be okay?
I found a bottle of baclofen fill 11-25-16 but the seal hasn't been broken are they still good and long will they last after seal has been broken I really need to know.Thanx
