ad
I've got this bottle of NPP from [censored] that expires on 9/2012. I've had it since last year.I was wondering if the shelf life goes beyond that and if so, what is the safe window before it's no longer any good??? Thanks in advance

ARCHONGot some NPP. Found it to have cloudy spots through it and parts were gelly like. Never seen anything like this before besides Test Prop that I left in the refrigerator and became riddled with shards. Later I found to be ok when applying some heat. This however is nothing if seen before. Anyone any ideas?
Unless it is pharma gear then the expiration dates are completely bogus and are just there for show, and even pharma gears dates are kinda BS. Basically, if the gear is not cloudy, crystalized, solid-like/gelly, or looks otherwise funky, then you should be totally fine. Depending on the oil used, some oils last longer than others. Grape seed oil seems to go bad faster than others, cotton seed oil is medium shelf life, and EO lasts the longest. Use your judgement, check the oil visually, smell it, inspect it, etc.
AnonYeah bro, I feel ya. I'll keep it for next cycle.
cdaddy7Stay on course brother, not a good idea to throw stuff in the mix like that in the middle of the cycle if you are doing good then just leave it...my theory is don't start nothing , won't b nothing...
AnonCool, so here's the deal. I'm 7 weeks into a 12 week cycle of Test e @ 500 mg's a wk. Thought I'd add the deca @ 100mg's eod for added boost. Maybe extend the cycle by a wk. Any comments???? But of course, lol..
like fast said bro if stored right your good to go
If not cloudy or crystalized.....and stored in cool dark place.....gtg
cdaddy7Ok, the expiration date doesn't mean its no good..The FDA made it a requirement that drug companies do so for a rule of thumb...Now after the expiration date things began to lose there potency or strength but its not rapid degeneration of the compound that takes a very long time and it def depends on the compound and where it is stored...In a cool, dry place slower...In increases heated temps and direct sunlight def will degrad it quick...Here's a study...Of course I edited it down to the meat for you bc of time consumption...
Most of what is known about drug expiration dates comes from a study conducted by the Food and Drug Administration at the request of the military. With a large and expensive stockpile of drugs, the military faced tossing out and replacing its drugs every few years. What they found from the study is 90% of more than 100 drugs, both prescription and over-the-counter, were perfectly good to use even 15 years after the expiration date.
So the expiration date doesn't really indicate a point at which the medication is no longer effective or has become unsafe to use. Medical authorities state expired drugs are safe to take, even those that expired years ago. A rare exception to this may be tetracycline, but the report on this is controversial among researchers. It's true the effectiveness of a drug may decrease over time, but much of the original potency still remains even a decade after the expiration date.
So you see where Im coming from? Hope this helped you and others
Bam!
If it was and still is stored in a cool dark place it SHOULD still be ok a few years from now, maybe just a little less effective. I had a hidden bottle of prop that I found when going through some stuff and it was at least 5 years old, gave it to a friend lol told him it was 5 years old and he still used it and said it was good
Bingo!
