Shelf Life Of Seconal

Updated

I have 100mg red Seconal Capsules filled in Feb, 2008. The expiration date is July, 09. I keep them in a bag in a dark corner of my linen closet where there is no moisture. How long are they actually good for?

They were good until that expiration date.

It isn't that these become dangerous, after they expire, but medications do lose effectiveness with time. The older they get, the less they will do.

I have 25-30 Eli Lily 100mg Sodium Seconal capsules with an expiration date of at least 2016. Are they still good past this date? Thank you.

Sorry but your outta luck... Even if you did have reds, Lilly hasn’t made them in years.
