[QUOTE="Pacman, post: 18696, member: 2450"] Thank you for explaining the whole concept of BUD. That does quite adequately explain as to the major variance in date ranges from different pharmacies. That certainly [I]does[/I] take away a large chunk of confusion. But two points that I'd be particularly interested in knowing are: 1) Is there a way to somehow calculate when the date of manufacturing was, based on the BUD? Or possibly calculate a certain date range of manufacture based upon the three scenarios of testing that you mentioned (30, 60, 90 days)? (I didn't quite get how they determine four months of use based off of 1,2, or 3 months of testing. Do they transpose those results to project a future expiration date or something?) 2) Is there a way to calculate the [I][U]actual[/U][/I] date or approximate period of time when the substance starts to lose potency? Maybe based on the date of manufacture (if we could do that)? I'm asking these questions primarily because it seems to me that the FDA has a tendency to err on the side of caution, and they probably include variables such as exposure to sunlight/oxygen that decreases their [I][U]already decreased[/U][/I] official "FDA guidelines" BUDs... So, if a vial is kept in a cool, dark place, unopened; what would be the [I]actual [/I]amount of time that it starts to lose potency? [/QUOTE]
