Steroid shelf life?

ad

How long is a vial of steroids good for, if never opened? Does it depend on the compound or is there a general life span?

My w*****n has an expiration date of 5 years. As long as it was stored properly, no temp changes, and no discoloration of the oil after that long.

My watCENSOREDson has an expiration date of 5 years.

Just to be clear, that is real pharma grade. Purchased at a brick and mortar pharmacy with a prescription.

Not black market pharma (they washed out the bathtub) grade that is bought online without a prescription.

Right, I forgot to add that.

On top of what the lads mention below, quality of the preservative and also the oil is v important
If you want to know Gold standard have a look at one of the pharmaceutical companies exp date compared to its manufac date, for a rough approximation. Work backwards for UGL, sure who knows what we are getting?!!!

Best stick with a busy lab who use preservatives and still, dont hoard

Depends on the lab procedures, oxygen, light and heat are your enemies. Quality of the rubber stopper would play into it also.

Being a gear hoarder doesn't pay, .......... unless you enjoy expire gear.

Quality of the rubber stoppers is correct!

Just had to bin 2 vials of test prop (unopened) as the rubber stopper was melting inside the vial. Looked like black streaks of ink at first glance

Lots of variables here. There's a magnifying glass up top that would have answered this, I know it's not shaped like a spoon but it's close...
