Hello, Colleeb! How are you?

This medication degrades over time and thus loses effectiveness. It would be best to simply dispose of what you have left and see your doctor for a new prescription.

This is an SSRI antidepressant and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, weight changes and dry mouth.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Most all drugs are still quite effective even after 5 years. This to say maybe if the drugs were in airtight containers and a dry environment.
