Hello, Amy! How are you feeling?

It is actually best not to use an expired antibiotic, they tend to start to lose effectiveness and may not properly eradicate an infection, which could create antibiotic resistant bacteria. This can also occur if you don't have enough of them to properly eradicate an infection, or if you take them when you don't actually have an infection.

Has pneumonia been confirmed by your doctor?
