Temperatures (heat is worse than cold) or sunlight, and you have an infection, and you KNOW you have a bacterial infection because you’re not an idiot, your tooth is infected, you feel it in your lymph nodes, whatever, you have no money or no insurance or whatever your situation is, but for whatever reason you have old antibiotic, TAKE IT. I’ve done 20 times and it’s never done anything but clear up my infection. It’s good for at least 3-5 years if stored correctly. Expand... Worse case scenario it’s not as potent. So take another one. I can actually taste it. I know if it’s working or not. And penicillin (not clindamycin which is a synthetic) is a fungus, so if anything it probably gets better with age. No. If it is expired, at the very least it has lost potency. Many "mycins" can become toxic when old. The chemicals can change over time. Dispose of it and get a new prescription. Besides, it is never good to try to treat with left over antibiotics (which you shouldnt have in the first place because they are meant for you to take the full course even if you feel better). If you have left overs, it is doubtful you have enough for a full course plus, without seeing a Dr, you dont know if the bacteria is even susceptible to the antibiotic. Please see your Dr. It is not good to try to cut corners when dealing with infection. This is how "superbugs" are formed. This sort of activity is what causes bacteria to become resistant.
