Expiry date

I have just received my 100 vials of B12 to SI. Brill fast service as ever. Expiry date 2022.... I will not use 100 in that time frame. What are folks thoughts on expiry dates?

No...not you Nonameavailable...autocorrect sometimes does some corkers...many of them have me howling in laughter.

One that happens to me regularly is that neurological is always autocorrected to read neurotically... topical...and really not funny given how those with B12 deficiency are often 'dealt with' by their doctors!

New devices always auto correct "Denise" to "Dense"... I'm sure it's appropriate but used to make me wince when my cognitive function was badly impaired due to the B12 deficiency! 😂😂

I try to read things through before I press "send" and often think "oh goodness no - NOT that!". But as you know I've been caught out on here more than once! ☺️

A major thank you to you and the other admins for your care that you put into this - hugely appreciated by me! x

Hi!

So long as the ampoules are stored a cool dark place I personally wouldn't worry about mine going a bit over their expiry date as they have a significant safety margin built into them.

There are strict rules and regulations about not being able to sell them on, etc, but what happens using private messages between people I wouldn't know. I wonder if some are shared between people?

That’s a difficult be deniseinmilden .I tried previously to donate to an organisation I thought they could safely pass them on to help their members but it was a big no no.they were very appreciative but there was no way around it.x

No I know!

They had the potential to get in lots of trouble!

That's why I said that I know you can't - although how they regulate private messages I'm not sure: but obviously I'm not suggesting or condoning it in any way.

I thought with it just being a vitamin it was ok to make the offer but apparently it wasn’t because it’s an injectable it’s classed as prescription medicine so it’s not allowed to share,seems nuts when you can go to a beauty salon and have it injected for cosmetic reasons at a huge cost doesent it.

Yes I have previously passed on to charity, regulations now forbid it.

Not what you're looking for?
