Question
What is the shelf life if loratab?  (pills)

Answer
Hi Debbie,
You need to heck that out with the drug store where you purchased the drug. It depends on how fresh their stock is.

Here is a clarification of my response.
There is no way I can tell when your medication will expire unless I know the expiry date on the bottle which the menucaturer determines. This similar to any product you purchase that has an expiry date.
