Do you consume expired medication?

Unfortunately, I did and had to since I was out of the new medication. This is how it goes. A month ago, I was down with a bad chill. I could feel a sudden body and muscle aches that chills down the bones in my body. I was feel cold but the weather was scorching hot while everyone was perspiring. I knew that I needed medication to cease the chill, so I was searching for Paracetamol. In my medicine cabinet, I had one piece of expired Paracetamol pill dated 2016. Yes I know, I could had asked someone to buy for me the new Paracetamol but only my boy was at home, I don't drive and my hubby was outstation. So, what can I do? I tried to boil ginger water, drank it, still feeling cold on the palm and feet. Suddenly, I felt headache and dizziness. I couldn't stand anymore, had to rest on the bed. My boy was worried sick too. Told my boy to get me the expired Paracetamol, ate it , drank a glass of water. An hour later, I felt better, the chill and aching bones had reduced. Quickly, I got on my feet, walked to the grocery shop which was 15 minutes away, bought a new strip of Paracetamol. Even thought the Paracetamol had expired, it still worked well for chills. Have you ever consume expired pills or medication? Picture belonged and take by @peachpurple
