It doesn't become dangerous, once expired, but it does start to lose efficacy, so it most likely won't work as well as it did, when new. He should double check with his doctor, before taking it.

The FDA classifies this medication as a muscle relaxant and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth.

Is there anything else I can help with?
