Have Allergies. Ephedrine And Sudafed. Is Medication Correct?

I am cleaning out my medicine cabinet and I found these pills with the imprint of GFL 25. So far, I found they may be in the ephedrine category. I have allergies, so I am guessing they are probably comparable to sudafed or actifed. Could you confirm? I have thrown out the box for more room, so I am marking them with a marker what they are for. Thank you, Reina

Hi Reina, Thanks for using HCM.

Since you don't have the cover / label of these drugs and these drugs are open, I advice not to use these drugs. They may be any drug, might have completed the expiry period. If you require any drugs then buy it from your drug outlets.
Also I advice you not to store medicines for longer days as they require different storage conditions like temperature, light etc. So buy new required drugs.

Hope this clarified your doubts.
Wish you good health.

Regards
