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 Healthy Holidays Dr Z

Probably OK: Drug expiration dates reflect the time of proved safety and effectiveness. But in almost all cases, the drug remains potent and safe for much longer (often many years), if it hasn't been exposed to high heat for long periods (like a car's glove compartment in summer). It's always safest to get a refill, but most likely the expired fluticasone will work just fine.
