Does expired rubbing alcohol work?

Question

Like does it still kill germs and i stuff? Im also talking about those alcohol based hand sanitizers will they work if they're expired?

Answer 1

See for yourself. Find an open wound and pour some of it on, then see if it hurts. If it hurts then there is a good chance it is working.

Answer 2

They will still work; they just don't be as effective after a while.

Answer 3

Yes... The expiration date is a thing they put on in the event something happens and you sue them, they can say it had expired.

Answer 4

of course, isopropanol does not go off that easily

Answer 5

Alcohol is alcohol.
