Cyclobenzaprine Expired

Updated

I have a bottle of Cyclobenzaprine HCL 5 mg, but it expired on 12/5/2015. With today's date being 11/28/2016, is it ok if I use some of that prescription until I get my new one refilled?

Hello, Tina!

This medication does not become dangerous, once expired, but it may not work as well as it did, when new. However, according to Rising Pharmaceuticals, a manufacturer of Cyclobenzaprine, the "expected" shelf-life of the drug is 24 months (2 years); so you're well within that time frame based on the date range you provided.

Hope this helps!
