minoxidil expiration question

[williteverend]

i was blow drying my hair and i looked at the bottle of minoxidil that was on my sink counter and it said the expiration date was 4/05. i got a little scared. does anyone know if this bottle is ineffective?

Do a little searching on pharmeceutical expiration dates and your fears will be over. Basically what you find is that their efficacy will not wane for quite a while after their expiration date.
