HI, Louis! How are you?

This medication isn't one of those that gets dangerous, once it's expired, but it does lose effectiveness. The expiration date would be one year from when it was dispensed to you, or when the original factory sealed container was opened.

Thus, over 2 years later, they really aren't going to help much and you should see that they are disposed of properly.

Have you contacted your doctor? It's also not good to try and self-diagnose, if something different is causing your pain this time, this may not be the appropriate medication to treat it.
