Brief Answer:
It is not safe to take it...
Detailed Answer:
Hi, thank you for posting.
I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns.
It is not safe to take this medication as it can be very dangerous, because it is 2 years out day.
She should throw them away, and get another prescription from her GP.
Ask me for anything unclear.
All the best.
