Generally speaking it is safe to take expired medication. However, it should be noted that the concentration of active ingredient in the medication is likely to be reduced. For certain drugs (anti-seizure medications, antibiotics, others), this may be dangerous. In the case of ultracet, the expired medication will likely be less effective, though not dangerous. Because there is no way to quantify the degree to which the medication has decomposed, do not take additional tablets in an effort to achieve a "full dose." That would be dangerous.
If you opened the original container, and if it is not expired, then yes it is safe to take.
you mom
Yesh
No! I had this same question and called the pharmacy. They said that most medications are safe to take if they are expired, however, expired Lyrica is extremely dangerous.
You should consult your Dr, but most will say never take expired medicine.
No. If it was safe, then it wouldn't be expired.
You should not take any medications or dietary supplements that have expired.
no you will get very sick
Tramadol is the opioid medication in the combination drug Ultracet. Ultracet contains both tramadol and acetaminophen.
Expired medicines should ALWAYS be thrown out. They are relatively inexpensive to replace and not worth the risk of taking an expired medication.
You can take anything you want any time....if it works or not depends on your state of mind....
Personally, no. Some people like it better than Percocet. I take pain pills for well, pain, and Ultracet does nothing at all for me. Others disagree.
