Once exposed to 'air' the quality of the supplement drops, its best if you store it in an air tight container, and then use the minimum amount, discarding the excess afterwards.
You won't harm your animals using the balance as you do now but it will never be quite as good as that straight out the container.

all I can do is tell you what I use, I'm no expert on vit supplements but I have had NO problems using Nutrabol. I use almost every feed for babies, then 2 - 3 times a week for adult beardeds. I feed a lot of rodents to mine so they get plenty of vits and calcium from them.
I have also started using Nekton, which is a German D3 supplement.

try not to just quote age, always give a size too (I have had adult beardeds by 6 months old, but have seen others a year old and still not adult size).
Once mine hit 30 cm (TL) I cut back a little.
