Baclofen/valium supps

Post by kathyd »

Hi
Does Anyone know how long a suppository
such as Baclofen/Valium lasts beyond its expiration
Date?
We are going on an impromptu vacation next week
We will be gone a week and I am almost sure my current
suppositories are plenty to last me more than a week.
I also have a few left over from about October...
Would these still be Useable ..just in case I run out?
tho I doubt I will)
I can also order more from the Compounding pharmacy but
mail may take longer to get to our vacation spot. I must wait
until approximately Friday to Order a refill based on
on when I ordered this past month's batch.
Just trying to make sure I'm covered, as I'm a worrier
As usual !
Thx for any advice from folks who use valium or other
Suppositories for pain.

They should be fine. I just pulled out my Belladonna and tramadol suppositories that I've had n there for a while and it still worked.

Thx Patty,
for your reply. I thought they would probly be okay. My compounding pharmacist said something about them not be as effective beyond 6 mos, but I could tell that he was obligated to say that.
So I should probably be fine as well.
It may be a bit early to order my refill tomorrow from my doc ( and my doc is closed Fri) so I will see. I have about 27 left (with 2 taken daily usually...
I should be fine for a week, esp with the couple of extra older ones I have. I always like to be covered so my mind is at ease!
Thx again!
