Oh, dude, expired Zantac 150? Yeah, that's like asking if a sandwich is still good 14 months after its sell-by date. Technically, the medication may not be as potent past its expiration, but hey, if you're feeling adventurous, go for it. Just don't expect it to work miracles.
Yes medical research has shown that Zantac (Ranitidine) is still effective up to 1.5 years after expiration date. After that it begins to lose some of its potency. Like canned food with expiration dates as long as the package is sealed and properly stored it lasts well beyond the expiration date.
