How long is Vicks Vapor rub good for?

I purchased a container several years ago, and it's about half gone. It didn't seem like it was working last night when I put it on my throat and chest. I have kept it in a cool place at all times and it has always been closed properly,

    Just finished a bottle that was "good" until April 2007 - it is now Nov. 2014. Still worked fine.

    i never keep it for more than a year

    though i do prefer a few drops of eucalypt in water in a scent oil burner. that way the whole area becomes an inhaler and it doesnt burn your breathing passages that way
