my son is 6 years old and has taken shelcal 500 expired in july 2012. I took him to the doc and he prescribed nothing instead he suggested to give one banana and curd rice. Is there anything I have to do. pls tell me ASAP. ## Hi, Deepa! How are you and your son? Shelcal is just a nutritional supplement, so it's not something that's dangerous, when it's expired.

Can you use it after it's expiration date? ## Hello, Cin! How are you? Medications tend to lose effectiveness over time and the problem that creates with an antibiotic is that it may not be quite strong enough to eradicate the bacteria that's caused an infection, which means that they are actually given the opportunity to develop resistance to the antibiotic and that has the potential to create serious health problems for you. It really is best to see your doctor for a new prescription. Learn more Ciprofloxacin details here. Antibiotics may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

My naproxen was filled 7/2011. Is it ok to take now (10-2012)?. ## Hi Turtle, There's actually a lot of conflicting information around the topic of expired medication, but according to a Harvard Medical School family health article, except in rare cases (i.e. tetracycline), there is little chance of danger due to taking medications even up to 15 years beyond their expiration date. This conclusion was based upon a study conducted at the request of the US military due to stockpiles of expensive drugs they could otherwise need to replace every few years. The conclusion was that 90% of those drugs remained effective 10 - 15 years after the expiration date. But the question is whether or not the drug you have happens to be one of these drugs from the study... (I have not seen the list of...

What about otolith? Any success in treatment? I've been languishing for a week waiting for the only doctor in my town who trays it to come back from vacation. It's totally debilitating and I can literally do nothing. For someone who had never been seasick, it's a terrible experience to to have the permanent impression of being worse off than Nelson at Trafalgar. ## Since posting the above I've been treated twice by the ears nose and throat specialist who masters the method. First time without success and the second time partial success. I still feel like I've been torn from bed without warning and quite weak, in addition to occasional vertigo and the odd headache. Medical resonance imagery planned in 3 weeks. Any ideas?
