I think some medications can actually harm after expiration dates but I don't know to be safe call first. Patty > I am still waiting for the Dr. to call the pharmacy to get my celebrex > refilled.

If it were meant to be taken then there wouldn't be an expiry date. Don't chance it a, it's not worth it. Instead why don't you get the Pharmacy to call your doctor for the refill, that's what my pharmacist does when I need a refill.
