Using Elidel (pimecrolimus) after its expiration date is not recommended, as its effectiveness may diminish over time. While it may not pose immediate risks, expired medications can lose potency, leading to reduced efficacy in treating conditions like eczema. It's best to consult a healthcare professional for advice on using expired medications and to obtain a new prescription if needed.
