The bottle has been opened. I haven't got the leaflet and the box doesn't say. We have had it for a few months now and may need to use it again.Has anyone gor the leaflet to look and see if it says.
I can just buy more but would like to use this up if poss.

It will have a use-by or best-before date on it somewhere - does the bottle have a printed label?

It has a use by but does not specify how long it will keep after opening.

ahhh, I getcha, sorry.

Shelf life is 5 years & it doesn't appear to say refrigerate after opening?

link to the leaflet here - it just says

"Storing this medicine

Do not use your medicine after the date shown as expiry date on the
packaging."
