Answers:
it depends on the drug, and the state in which you try to fill it.

It is probably for what is called a 'legend' drug, in which case it is good for one year from when it was written..in Utah which is where I live. Call your pharmacy, they can tell you the answer in 5 seconds.

I'm allergy to paracetamol and NSAIDS.Please tell a antipyretic for me?

most prescriptions should be taken til its all gone. but its still good til up to 1 year. if you still have it after 1 year and take it nothing will happen it just means that the medication will not be as effective. just to be on the safe side you should throw it out. no one else should take your mendicine if prescribed. the doses are decided by a number of things including weight and height. just for the fun of it lets say you and a friend are both 180lbs but you are 5'11'' and your friend is 5'4'' that may be something significant. that person may need more milligrams or less also you may have slightly diffrent things like a heart problem, diabetes, etc. that a doctor takes into consideration.

We will work with you on that.
