The shelf life doesn't really say anything about it being real or fake....unless the it's something rediculous like a 10 year shelf life or something.
Anyway, expiration dates aren't very accurate anyway. An expiration date is supposed to be at what point the medication retains >90% of it's activity in ideal conditions. Studies have been done and found that certain medications will retain thier activity for greater than 15 years after it's "expiration" date....just is going to be a little weaker because of degeneration..
