Androgel and Testim -- do they really expire?

[Guest guest]

All medication expires. What does that mean? Different things, but mostly it looses it's potency. It does NOT matter that is a sealed patch or a pill or a liquid. Does it mean you have to go through your cabinet and throw away every drug away the MONTH after it expires. Some would say yes, but I say no. If it is five years old, maybe. Some drugs have a short shelf life. If it does have a very short shelf life, it usually means it really does expire soon. So use your own discrecion when using expired medications. They usually will not cause you harm, unless it is vital you get a fully potent medication.
