I was wondering if anyone has looked into how long Aspirin retains its potency for long term storage?
OR
What herbal concoctions can replace Aspirin when TSHTF?
Thanks!

The Apostle Paul told us to not worry about anything.
- Philippians 4:6-7 “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything through prayer with thanksgiving, let your requests be made know to God”
What should we do instead of worrying?
1. Pray for what you need as well as for what you want.
2. Tell God that you are thankful for what he has already given you.
3. Request from God everything you need for the day, every day.

I've read/heard when you take the cap off if it smells like vinegar it's too old. The stronger the smell the less potent it is.
This only happened to us once and the smell wasn't very strong but threw it out anyway.
I hear tell the same - vinegar odor = toss the aspirin. Willow bark, the inner bark, is the original source of "aspirin" and still the best replacement herb for commercial aspirin.

Aspirin in a sealed airtight bottle kept out of direct light has an extremely long
shelf life. The trick is to keep moisture out of the bottle. Once a bottle has
been opened than the clock starts running though scrupulous storage can help keep
it viable for a long time. In the desert here I've had a bottle that's been open for
several years, I rarely take aspirin but the contents of this bottle are still fine
after being open for a long time. In more humid climates though the time frame
will likely be different.

An unopened bottle will last for years. FYI if you want to keep Aspirin good for a longer period after opening keep that cotten peice in the bottle.
Willow is a natural aspirin. Google it, the biggest problem with using willow is that you dont know what dose your getting. FYI chewing on a willow twig will relieve a toothache - Ive done this myself it really works
