Packet of emergen-c immune system powder mix, expired a year and 1/2 ago, been in my car and is a little stiff. still effective and ok to drink?

Expired meds: I think you answered your own question. The medication was expired. In addition, it was denatured, probably by moisture effect on the aging package. Not ok to drink. Throw it out.
