Store testosterone cypionate at room temperature between 68°F and 77°F (20°C and 25°C). Keep this drug away from light.
Typically, the pyramid cycle will last six to 12 weeks.
Medical authorities state that expired medicine is safe to take, even those that expired years ago. It's true the effectiveness of a drug may decrease over time, but much of the original potency still remains even a decade after the expiration date.
Store at room temperature away from light and moisture. Do not store in the bathroom. The medication expires 90 days after the bottle is opened. Keep all medications away from children and pets.

Injections of Testosterone will last approximately 15-17 days and after that there will be a dramatic drop. The 14 day treatment schedule keeps that dramatic drop from occurring.
The half-life of testosterone cypionate when injected intramuscularly is approximately eight days. In many tissues the activity of testosterone appears to depend on reduction to dihydrotestosterone, which binds to cytosol receptor proteins.
Testosterone esters are administered in oil vehicle via the intramuscular route. Rarely, dry cough together with faintness, diaphoresis, anxiety and syncope caused by pulmonary oil microembolism(POME) may occur. POME events are generally self-limited and last a few minutes. Very rarely they need oxygen therapy.

Practically speaking, Hall said there is a handful of drugs known to degrade quite quickly, such as nitroglycerin tablets, insulin and tetracycline, an antibiotic that may become toxic to the kidneys after it expires.
Most shelf-stable foods are safe indefinitely. In fact, canned goods will last for years, as long as the can itself is in good condition (no rust, dents, or swelling). Packaged foods (cereal, pasta, cookies) will be safe past the 'best by' date, although they may eventually become stale or develop an off flavor.
Expired medicines can be risky
Certain expired medications are at risk of bacterial growth and sub-potent antibiotics can fail to treat infections, leading to more serious illnesses and antibiotic resistance. Once the expiration date has passed there is no guarantee that the medicine will be safe and effective.
