My dog's Rimadyl expired. Is it still safe or effective to use?

Question

How long after the expiration date is rimadyl good for? Pet's info: Dog | Australian Cattle Dog | Female | spayed | 5 years old | 55 lbs

Lauren Jones VMD · Accepted Answer

No medication should be given after the expiration date. The expiration dates are determined because medication begins to degrade and become ineffective after the expiration date. Some medications also become unsafe in addition to being ineffective. Do not give Marley expired Rimadyl and contact her vet to have this prescription refilled, if needed. I hope that all goes well!
