Question 1

can i use expired fluticasone?

Accepted Answer

Generally: most expiration dates are very "conservative" and drugs are potent long after their "expiration dates' HOWEVER it is NOT a WISE thing to do..Ask your Pharmacist to call the Prescriber for a refill!!! That service is free and your FRESH Prescription is only a few hours away!
Hope this helps
