Picture this: Your head is killing you, so you open your medicine cabinet in hopes of finding some Advil. It's there! But wait. It expired a year ago. Now what?
想象一下:你现在头疼的厉害,所以你打开药柜希望找到Advil止痛药。找到了!但等一等,一年前药就过期了。现在该怎么办?
It's a predicament most of us have faced, so it begs the question: What do expiration dates on over-the-counter and prescription drugs really mean, and is it ever safe to take expired medication? After all, who decided that your go-to migraine relief can't be consumed after, say, April 23, 2020?
大多数人都面临过这样的困境,所以引出了这样的问题:非处方药和处方药的过期日期意味着什么?吃过期的药是否安全?毕竟,谁规定了偏头痛止痛药过了2020年4月23日就不能吃了呢?
"By law, drug manufacturers are required to stamp an expiration date on their products," says Margarita Rohr, MD, of New York University Langone Joan H. Tisch Center for Women's Health. "This date represents the date at which the manufacturer can still guarantee full potency and safety of the medication."
"根据法律规定的,药品制造商必须在药品上标明过期日期,"纽约大学Langone Joan H. Tisch Center for Women's Health的玛格丽塔·罗尔医学博士说道。"这个日期代表制造商仍可保证药物的完整药性和安全性。"
