Question
What are the possible effects on the body if an expired Neck Comfort Capsule is accidentally taken? What precautions should be taken?
Answer
Generally, taking expired medication orally can lead to varying degrees of gastrointestinal discomfort, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and nausea. It is recommended to drink plenty of water to promote the excretion of the medication. If gastrointestinal symptoms occur, consider taking symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication for treatment. Neck Comfort Capsules are a traditional Chinese medicine preparation with the effect of relaxing muscles and improving circulation. Even if expired, their side effects are relatively minor. If there are no adverse reactions at present, there is no need to be overly concerned. However, to ensure drug safety, it should be checked whether the medication has expired in the future.
