Question What is the actual shelf life of erythromycin? I have a bottle that was filled 2-10-06, with instructions to discard after 2-10-07..thank you
Answer The shelf life (expiration date) of erythromycin can be 1 or 2 years depending on the manufacturer's formulation, and the type of packaging used.
Once dispensed by yourpharmacist, it should be used within 30 days (asthe pharmacist's packaging will not support a longer expiration dating.
