Would you take lorazepam that expired in 2014?

no medication gets MORE potent, only less. that's why it expires.

Five or less years I'd take it. You want to make sure it's working for your trip. Ask your doctor for a new script.

Yes.

Can you take one before your trip so you know how it affects you? I'd hate to be trapped in an airplane and have a bad reaction to the medicine.

You needed Xanax for your wedding? Why? Are you still married?


DP. Dealing with my mother, tbh.

Yes, I would take it, and even if it lost some potency I'd probably get a little placebo effect just from knowing I'd taken it.

I wouldn’t unless I had no other choice. I throw out meds if they are 5 years expired.

Curious if you took it and whether or not it worked. I’m in a similar situation and have some ten year old lorazepam I’m considering using for a short term situation. It was prescribed to me back in 2015.

Yes. It’s fine. Probably not that diminished, either.

I have a chronic medical condition and was given an Rx for that to have this painful procedure 1x a year. It lasted me 10 years and the last one worked as well as the first one.

Drs aren't giving these out anymore.
