Hello Med01,
Based on my research, U.S. prescription medications are required to have a mandatory expiration date of 1 year from the date the prescription is filled. After a year is up, the medication should still be safe but it will start to lose its potency and can no longer be as effective. However, there are some medications that can become dangerous after they expire. That being said, it's best to not take any medication after its expiration date.
Do you have the package that the Atarax came in, or do you remember when the prescription was filled?
You can learn more about this drug on the page for Atarax Details
I hope this info helps!
The date is 2011 it's still in the bottle it came in I just wasn't sure if I should take it but now I won't thanks for the info
