Brief Answer:
Look at the bottles/container for the expiry date!

Detailed Answer:
HI and thank you so much for this query.

Tizanidine does not require any special storage conditions. However, it is always advised to store drugs away from direct sunlight in a dry and airy environment. As for the shelf life, please refer to the packaging for information on the expiry date as this is not constant. Each packet has its expiry date and as such you need to sort this out by looking at the packaging.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.

Brief Answer:
This cannot be resolved without that. You need to take it to a pharmacist!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

We are unable to determine that without at least the date of manufacture. If this has been tampered with, I will declare the drug not good for further human consumption and please, do not take it. If you could take it to a pharmacist, using the batch number they could determine but am not sure this is worth the efforts.

I hope this helps. I wish you well and let me know if there is something more you would like me to do for you at this time.
