Hello. I would like to order these drops but have one question. What is shelf life after opening? thanks

I don't think there IS a "shelf life". I have used it for years and some of the bottles are very old, but they work just the same as the newer ones. I have used other brands that do not hold a candle to Laiter Collyre Bleu.

I just bought mine today in a local "big box" store. The expiration date is 01/15. I do *not* recommend having these shipped to you in the hot summer months. Most of the big "Mart" type stores carry them in their vitamin section, and my local supermarket does, too.

Well I am at the 9 drop a day mode so the open bottle keeps a long time...I keep mine in the refrigerator.

Oh, I just saw on the bag that refrigeration is recommended after opening. Oops! They're still good, I've had them for about a month or little more.

Honestly, I never heard about an "expiration date." So I just went and looked at mine. I have both tabs and drops and looked both packages over and I could not find anything that referred to an "expiration date" unless I'm missing something I don't believe they have one. Hope that helps.

I guess because it has no preservatives but maybe so we'll buy more eye drops! What I have found is that one bottle lasts me almost exactly 60 days, in which time it does not seem to go bad (but I leave it at home, not in a hot car or anything like that). I really like these drops and would probably still use them even if I had to throw a little bit away after 60 days. These drops don't sting and don't make my eyes feel drier like most other drops do.

The ones I bought last month say they are good through October 2015, but I'm assuming that's unopened. Once opened I would just freeze them!

I placed my order on July 24, 2013 and received it on July 26, 2013. The expiration date was 04/06/15 on the cans. They are not long term storage if that is what you are looking for. For short term supplies they would do very well. I hope this has helped you.

Depends on how much u Take at one time. My bottle lasted me a month. I took a drop full a day. Hope this helps.

Hello! I've been ordering these noodles in shipments of 30/box for the past two years. The shelf life per box of 30 is about 3-5 months. I absolutely love them and it's beneficial ordering 30 at a time because it's most cost effective.

I am uncertain of the shelf life. We used one and did not open the other for at least two weeks and it was still fresh.

I am on my second bottle and both have lasted me much longer than that, actually months. I have kept the eye drop bottles in the refrigerator to keep fresh. It is a little cold, but kinda refreshingly cool when you use the drops on irritated or allergic eyes.

Mine came today and there was NO ice pack! So it has been in the 80's during shipment 6-18-14..are these worth taking? The bottle just says: Storage: refrigerate and keep tightly closed. My storage will be refrigerated but what about the storage before me? I will take these and see if these help. But for the price, if they were hurt by the previous lack of care for the probiotics, not a good purchase. And I will not purchase again and never know if they would have been good after all!

If you order from a reputable company, the shelf life are well within safe sell dates. Some expiration dates are from 3 months to next year.

They have a very long shelf life, even after they have been opened. My bottle has an expiry date of 04.2015 and I purchased them back in 2013.I don't even know if they need to be refrigerated.

I just checked my bottle and it has an expiration date of June 2016. I think I bought this current 2-pack back in November. As long as you take one a day and keep them dry, you are in no danger of letting them expire (unless of course you order more than just a 2-pack). Long story short, shelf-life from when you get it is probably 1.5-2 years.

I believe there should be an expiration date on the package. I would say you could keep them for a while at room temperature. After a week I would put them in the frig. The package is usually eaten up by then though for me. Hope this helps. :)
