Was it already mixed into liquid form by your pharmacy?

If so, then the expiration for such suspensions is usually very short, about a week to 10 days.

Learn more Bactrim details here.

If it's still in powder form, then it will have a much longer shelf life.

Have you tried contacting the dispensing pharmacy to ask?
