Is it ok for me to use an old prescription I never filled?

Asked by Ltryptophan (12091points) January 4th, 2011

In 2009 I very seriously considered having my wisdom teeth out. This resulted in the necessary preparatory examinations, a date of removal, and an issuance of a prescription for amoxicillin. I never went.

The amoxicillin prescription is still in my possession.

Now, I have a respiratory illness that is producing a decent amount of green phlegm, and minor discomfort.

I believe the amoxicillin prescription would help get me past this. I am not a doctor, nor do I play one on television.

Can I use this prescription?
