      i have found myself recently with an abundance of npp, and some of it has been aging a little bit bc i lost the shit and then it magically appeared again. so i am curious as to the common length in time gear with sit before it starts losing its strength or expires?

      2-3 years if stored at room temp (68degrees) is my thought.
      Any more experienced bros please correct me if I'm wrong.

      If stored in a cool dry place 5 years. All that said and just because it's expired doesn't mean it's "bad" like going to hurt you...what your looking at is a loss of potency. The rate of degradation of each product depends on way too many factors.

      Truth is most expirations (on real pharm) are to get you to toss it and get more. Many drugs have proven to have almost maximum potency 10 plus years down the road if stored correctly!!!

      Agrees with 6p6 my wife is a pharmacist and most of the time that is the reason they want you to buy more. That being said it will just lose its potency it's not going to hurt you but it may not work as well. I wouldn't have a problem using it.

      Thanks brotha. Didn't know if that applied to oils as well as orals. Always learning something from the family at FG.

      Room temp and keep it out of light it should be gtg for a long time. dont let it get to hot or to cold and try not to let the temp fluctuate a lot. keep it out of the light as well. I dont see it going "bad" if you do this. The only thing i could see happening is losing SOME potency. I started my recent cycle off with a bottle of test p that i have had for about 3.5 years.
      I never meant to be better than anyone, I was just born that way. Its hard being a god amongst peasants!

      I cut and pasted this.. I've read it enough I should know it verbatim by now..lol

      It turns out that the expiration date on a drug does stand for something, but probably not what you think it does. Since a law was passed in 1979, drug manufacturers are required to stamp an expiration date on their products. This is the date at which the manufacturer can still guarantee the full potency and safety of the drug.

      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.
