Expired baclofen?

Short answer: don’t use baclofen past its expiration date. The potency isn’t guaranteed after the expiry, and you can’t be sure it’s safe or effective to take.

How to dispose of expired baclofen
- Check for a drug take-back program or pharmacy take-back event in your area. That’s the safest option.
- If no take-back is available:
- Do not flush the pills down the toilet or sink.
- Put the pills in a sealable bag or container with something undesirable (e.g., used coffee grounds, cat litter, dirt) to deter misuse.
- Seal the bag/container and discard in your household trash.
- Remove or obscure the label on the bottle to protect your privacy.

If you’re unsure or need a replacement
- Talk with your pharmacist or prescriber about getting a fresh supply if you still need baclofen.
- If you accidentally took an expired dose and you have concerning symptoms (great drowsiness, confusion, trouble breathing, or fainting), seek medical advice or call your local poison control center.
