When do amoxi-drops expire?

Our question this week was:

My cat is on amoxi drops- when do these expire? My vet didn't say.

Answer

Hi – thanks for your email. If the amoxi-drops are not constituted (not mixed with water) – the expiration is that which is on the box. Once mixed, they expire in 14 days: The newest bottle/brand of Amoxi drops says that refrigeration is recommended but not essential. Check your bottle to be sure. It generally says on the bottle or box.

An article that might be helpful to you is a drug profile on Amoxicillin.

Best of luck!
