Multiple Choice

Drugs that are donated cannot be already used or _____.

Donations must still be within their labeled shelf life. The required condition is that drugs are unused and not expired, because the ability to guarantee potency and safety ends at the expiration date. Expired medications may have reduced potency or altered safety profiles, so they aren’t eligible for donation. While recalled, contaminated, or damaged drugs are also inappropriate for donation, the blank is filled by expired since expiration directly relates to whether the product’s quality can be trusted.
