Are Eight Year Old Temazepam 15mg Capsules Safe To Take

Updated

I was prescribed 15mg temazepam capsules in August 2008 to help me sleep. I still have some from 2008; it is now the year 2016. Is it safe to take or has it expired?

This medication does not become dangerous once expired, but it does lose effectiveness over time. After this many years, they are most likely useless and you should dispose of them.

The FDA warns that such a medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability.

Is there anything else I can help with?
