E-DRUG: Differences in shelve lives of same medicine (4)
-------------------------------------------------------

Dear e-druggers,

A particular drug should not have differences in its
shelve life, no matter the method of testing. 

However,the same drug can be presented as
different dosage forms, and the other constituents of
these dosage forms could affect the stability and
shelve life of the active(drug). This is the reason
only highly experienced experts should carry out these
type of studies.
