Can tell you aspirin loses it's potency and can make you very sick if too old. My pop took some aspirin one time I was at his house. About an hour or so after he took it I thought I was going to have to take him to the ER, he was so sick to stomach. From the expiration date on the bottle, it was 11 years old. No he didn't just keep an old bottle and reuse it. It honest to gosh was 11+ year old aspirin, he only used aspirin in a "blue moon" his words so he never replaced old stuff. Called his Dr. and was told to watch him but TG pop didn't have anything more than an upset stomach.He did catch heck from his doctor at the next visit about hanging on to old meds and not properly storing them.
