Q: can i use expired budensonide inhalation suspension 0.25 mg/2 ml after it's expiration date?

: The expiration date is the last time the manufacturer assures its' full potency. It does not turn toxic at that point and may retain enough potency to be helpful for months after that date. I would consider using it until you can get a refill with the understanding it may be weaker than expected.
