Once opened before expiry you can use for 1 month that is within Sept 2020. Also after opening store in the door of the refrigerator in a sealed pouch to avoid contamination.

If you have to use the drop right now then it is perfectly safe to use. If you want to store the drop then it is preferable to not use after September 2020.
