Fake PrEP?

I recently got TAFICITA (generic prep / Emtricitabine
and Tenofovir Alafenamide) from a pharmacy in Bangkok, and upon return to my home country, I realised that both the box and the bottle had a sticker covering the original expiry date. The new expiry date had extended the shelf life by a year.

Now, I’m super concerned whether (1) the PrEP was legitimate, and (2) even if it was real PrEP, how safe and effective it is now that I’m using it after expiry and had unprotected sex.

Has anyone experienced this issue before? I’m concerned whether I should head to the hospital and get on PEP.
