Does Taking Gestofit Near To Its Expiry Date During Pregnancy Harm The Fetus?

Hi doctors. I have taken Gestofit 300mg tablets for two months. I'm carrying three months now.. I have doubt about the tablets date which expired January 2017.. I have taken the tablets from December to january full month..Later our doctor told me to take HALD 200 mg.. Even this tablets expired February 2017.. now I'm on tablets.. Will these tablets near expiry date harm my baby?Am I get any abnormal baby from these tablets??

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I have gone through your question and understand the concerns. Expired drugs have decreased efficacy. These are unlikely to harm the fetus anyway. Do not worry, and stop the use of expired drugs.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
