Expiration Date For Metoprolol Sandoz (Top voted first)

Updated

I have a bottle of metoprolol 50 mg sandoz that was filled on 4/29/2008. Is it bad to use? It's 8 years old. Does it lose strength? And is it harmful?

Hello, Frank! How are you?

It does not become dangerous or harmful, but it can lose effectiveness, so it may not work as well as it should. It would be best to dispose of it and obtain a new supply.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination and hyppotension.

Is there anything else I can help with?
