Is it safe to use expired medicine creme?


Question:
Meaning creme used for rashes?

Answers:
I wouldn't do it. It is impossible to know exactly when a chemical breaks down to the point that it is no longer effective. While it probably doesn't completely stop working on the exact day of expiration, it is smart to err on the side of caution when dealing with any drug. I would just buy a new one - that way you know the chemical is still active.
NO!
never use any thing expired if in doubt call your local pharmacist
