Old pharmaceuticals still good to use (1980)?
Post Body

Hello dear people, I was allowed to take some furniture from my grandparents to fill my new apartment a little. My grandfather used to be a chief physician and so I noticed a special inventory of some drawers that are still filled. Maybe you could help me and tell me what to do with it.

2 packs of Bellergal Sandoz (30 dragées): - for neurovegetative disorders - 1 dragée contains: * 0.1mg Belladonna total alkaloids (Bellafolin) * 0,3mg Ergotaminartrat (Gynergen) * 20mg Phenobarbital There is no MHD anywhere on it, only the number 307283 (I think batch number). The year 1983 would at least be there :D.

1 pack of Allional (10 tablets): - for pain, fever and insomnia. - 1 tablet contains: * 50mg 5-allyl-5-isopropyl barbituric acid * 110mg 1-phenyl-2,3-dimethyl-4-isopropyl-pyrazolone(5) Again, there is no MHD listed, only the number 609285, and if the last two digits refer to the year, 1985 would also fit the bill.

1 pack of Trisomnin (20 tablets) - Sleeping pills - 1 tablet contains: * 60mg secobarbital sodium * 30mg Secbutabarbital sodium * 60mg Phenobarbital - Again without MHD, only the number 200.

All of these pharmaceuticals are hermetically sealed, Bellergal Sandoz and Allional in blisters, and Trisomnin in a small glass vial.

How long do such drugs last? Do you think they could still be consumed? Do they become more toxic or do they simply lose their effect? Is it even worth it if they really come from, say, 1983, 1985? What do you think about my discovery and the further course of events?

Thank you for reading, I am happy about every answer!
