Does gear lose its potency if close to or expired?
ad
I have several bottles of tren e 200 and test e 300 that I purchased recently but have the expiration dates of 01/01/2020. I would like to know if these gears lose there potency when expired. Also is there any risks to using these if when expired? When I purchased these I received a “good deal” monetarily but didn’t have any idea they were soon to expire. I’m inclined to use them and not worry about any potency issues unless I here that it would be unhealthy or a problem. Just want to get a feel of what the eroids community thinks on this issue.

I know from a career in medical sales FDA requires expiration date on EVERYTHING... including plastic syringes that wound take multiple decades to "expire". Same with pharmaceuticals... They are required to give them an expiration date just because they are required to. With that being the case UGLs are going to put expiration dates on thier products to mimic the pharmaceutical look. All in all as long as it's still suspended you should be g2g. Orals will get brittle with him but they don't necessarily lose potency.
RustyhookerI was waiting for the lazy op to come back where things like oxidation could be chatted about. Thats the reality of dates and ages. And simple as storage etc. Chemistry nerd out....
Alphamale500You made a great point and I agree with all of your comments, except for this one comment that you made,
"All in all as long as it's still suspended you should be g2g."
Oily solutions can certainly become rancid/rotten when improperly stored. Factors such as storing at high temperatures, exposure to light etc.. can cause this to happen. And the gear can still be suspended and look perfectly fine, but it might not be! This is why it's always a good idea to visually inspect the gear, squeeze out a drop or two and smell it, possibly taste it etc., just to make sure it's g2g. Especially since like you mentioned, expiration dates really don't mean anything when dealing with UGL gear.
I just wanted to address that statement for the benefit of the newer guys who might not know any better, and not to argue with you in any way! +1
One of the few things that can go wrong is the oil going rancid.The solvents bb and ba make it take a lot longer than the oil alone.The drug would still be effective but the rancid oil might suck when injected!
Very good points. I should have been more specific in my comment. By "g2g" I was only referring to potency since that is what OP was asking about even then I probably should have clarified and said "As potent as it was when it was made assuming proper storage". Good catch bro. After reading it again I see that it was kind of a lazy comment on my end.
I totally agree bro!

Bang'emBro I can tell you that I have used some prop that was about 6 months out of date that I got from a friend a while back and it was some of the best i ever tried
I confirm what everyone said you can use them well after all as the oral ones too
RustyhookerThe op should research and post his findings.
AnonYes, just send it my way. I'll pitch it for you. The expiration date on anything is not magic. Things dont magically take a shit because of the date.
Also when your health is concerned, maybe spend the extra money..after all, gear is like 1/4 of what food costs for a cycle...
You only get one body bro! Don't fk it up to save $$
No, but it'll lose its effectiveness when I expire.
GEAR usually is good for a long time past the expiration date!
Alphamale500That's a pretty broad statement, no offense. Imo, it really depends on what type of gear you're talking about like pharmacy gear or UGL, solvents and oils, proper storage etc. If we were talking about gear from the pharmacy, which has an expiration date of usually 2 years from the manufacture date, then I would certainly agree. But when talking about UGL gear, you have to take into account that these labs give their gear an expiration date of approximately 4-5 years from the manufacture date. So idk if this gear would be good for a very long time after it expires. There's really many variables that can come into play as well.
But imo, when stored properly, either gear can maintain its effectiveness past its expiration dates. How much longer, I don't think there's a set time period. Of couse if the gear is expired(or even before using any gear if you really wanna be safe), the user should check it out to be sure it's not rancid! You may wanna smell it, or even taste a small drop etc..
This has been discussed several times before. Use the search function. Even the military did studies that proved the expiration date for meds were mostly arbitrary.
For UGL's it's just to make them look legit. There is no reason for them to put an expiration date on any of their products.
Your comments about making sure the gear is not rancid after a long storage time is completely valid; looking for evaporation, cloudiness, etc.
Alphamale500Good points!!
except gel caps like isotretinoine or any other liquids like fat burner bud
No
