Minn. R. agency 164, ch. 6800, OPERATION OF PHARMACIES, pt. 6800.3350
A beyond-use date of not more than one year from the prepackaging date or the time remaining to the manufacturer's expiration date, whichever is less, shall be placed on every container of drugs prepackaged into prescription vials by the pharmacist.
A beyond-use date of not more than one year from the packaging date or the time remaining to the manufacturer's expiration date, whichever is less, shall be placed on all unit-of-use and blister card packaging whether prepared by the pharmacist at the time of dispensing or prepared earlier in anticipation of the dispensing.
When a drug is dispensed in a prescription vial, a beyond-use date need not be printed on the label. Drugs dispensed in prescription vials that are labeled with a beyond-use date shall bear a beyond-use date of not more than one year from the dispensing date or the time remaining to the manufacturer's expiration date, whichever is less.
Nothing in this part supersedes the pharmacist's professional judgment.
