I'm getting ready to order some vaccines for our ranch for about 30 horses. I was going to also order for the babies that we are going to be having in the summer, and possibly for our shots in the fall. I was wondering how long the shots will stay good as long as they are refrigerated? I need to know for both if the vial has been used, and also for if the vial is unused? Would it be wise to just wait and order the others when i need it?
The reason I ask is because the shipping is almost 40 dollars, and i order from two different sites - one for west nile, and the other for everything else. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. =D

Hello Prakash,
They are good until the expiration date on the package runs out for many vaccines this is a year or more after manufacture it stored properly. Sometimes OTC drug vendors but wholesale products that are short dated cheap so may not be good for long. Se we really cannot answer the question but if you buy over the phone they should be able to give you the expiration date.
