From diagnosing acute conditions to managing chronic diseases, veterinarians rely on medications to restore and maintain animal health. But ensuring those medications are effective, safe, and compliant with regulations requires an important element, expiration date labels. Beyond patient safety concerns, expired medications can result in significant financial waste. In fact, DVM360 reports that inventory losses due to expired medicines can represent 1.5% to 2% of total revenue, amounting to roughly $10,000 per full-time equivalent veterinarian in a practice.
