What does expired means in medical records?

Expired has two different meanings in medical records:

1. Expired medications: Medications, like all consumables, have an expiration date. As medications can lose their potency once expired, a notation of EXP on a medical record will be made when there is an expired dosage form/quantity on file/in supply at a dispensing unit/pharmacy

2. A patient has deceased: In this case, "expired" simply indicates a person's status of being deceased in hospital.
