Is ciclopirox cream still good a year after expiration date?

The effectiveness of ciclopirox cream may decrease over time, so it is generally not recommended to use it after its expiration date. Even if it may appear unchanged, the chemical properties and potency of the medication may have changed, potentially reducing its effectiveness or increasing the risk of side effects. It is always advisable to follow the recommended storage instructions and use medications within their specified expiration dates to ensure optimal safety and efficacy. Consult with a healthcare professional for further advice and recommendations.
