Why can’t prescriptions be stockpiled? You don’t believe those USE BY dates do you?

The doctor won't prescribe more than 30 days.

Tetracycline breaks down into toxic byproducts, so especially with tetracycline dispose of it after the expiration date..

Other meds, check the web or contact the manufacturer. Many other antibiotics just lose potency.
