Q: can you use antifungal powder spray for athlete's foot after it expires???

: The expiration date of these products is the last date the manufacturer assures they retain full potency. They don't turn toxic at that point but may be less effective. Such sprays likely remain potent enough to help some many months and sometimes years after they expire.
