Taking expired medicine can be dangerous. Some lose potency, making them ineffective, while others may become harmful over time. That’s why checking expiry dates is a must. At Drug Street, we use advanced tracking systems to ensure no expired stock ever reaches a customer. But at home, it’s your responsibility to check your medicine cabinet regularly. Discard anything that’s expired or looks damaged. Eye drops, liquid antibiotics, and creams spoil faster—so keep an eye on them. Also, never use medicine that has changed color, smell, or texture. Expired medications can lead to treatment failure or unexpected side effects. Don't risk it. If you're unsure, bring your medicine to a Drug Street outlet—we’ll help verify its safety. And remember: medicine isn’t like canned food—it doesn't “probably work” past its date. Always use fresh, verified medication for your health and peace of mind.
