I don't buy Amazon drugs after getting too many items that were near or already expired. They love to put stuff on sale right before it expires.

With inert medications like this, expiration means very little.
You might lose some efficacy, but it won't harm you to take them

Even >15 years past expiration

Not bad if you only want 100 total. For larger sizes, Costco, BJs et al are less expensive per caplet.

Not a good price. You can get 100 caplets from Walmart (Equate) for $1.97 and Target (Up&Up 500mg) for $1.99

I bought these last year and they had 10 months till expiration. It was a 500 CT. caplets. They still work great. I only paid $5.97 otherwise I would've bought a smaller size.

I like regular strength because you can only take extra strength in 3 doses, before hitting the 3000mg daily limit.

Yes, same general rule for vitamins if stored appropriately (not damp, in direct sunlight etc)
Im unsure about stability of gummies

But you have to walk into a Walmart.
