There is no expiry date on the prescription bottle. How long is the shelf life for this medication?

Hello, Aline! How are you?

Going by the U.S. FDA and product testing, once it has been dispensed in a pharmacy bottle, the expiration date is one year from that date it was dispensed. That is the longest that the manufacturer can guarantee that it retains full efficacy.

Is there anything else I can help with?
