USP chapter <795> recommends an expiration date of how many months for non-aqueous liquids and solids?

  1. 3 months

  2. 6 months

  3. 12 months

  4. 24 months

The correct answer is: 6 months

USP chapter <795> recommends an expiration date of 6 months for non-aqueous liquids and solids, as this is the safe and standard time frame for these types of medications. Option A is incorrect because 3 months may not be enough time for some compounds to fully degrade and lose potency, while option C is incorrect because 12 months is too long of a time frame for these types of medications which are at a higher risk of deterioration. Option D is incorrect because 24 months is too long and the medication may lose potency or become contaminated over such a lengthy period of time.
