Dispose medication: Medications from legitimate pharmacies have expiration dates on the bottles or boxes in which they are shipped and packaged. One should NEVER use medication which has been expired beyond it's formal date on the packaging or bottle in which it was distributed. It is a potentially dangerous (sometimes LETHAL) proposition to use medication that is even several years old....let alone 15+. DISPOSE!!

Expired medication: You are asking about using medicine that is a quarter of a century old ! This is also a relatively inexpensive medication. DON"T take this medication - it expired a long, long, long time ago.
