As they say: Knowledge is power.

Good conversation. I thought the same thing about the drugs, but what do I know? (I also didn't have enough time to type a full page legal waiver about not using OB posts as medical advice, consult your doctor, etc, etc.)

well... you know... when work in the area, you learn to cover your back at any time... just in case the FDA or the EMEA decides to jump in and audit the OB ))))

I've searched all the Physan labels today and have saved copies from the manufacturer's site. I can't find this shelf-life discussion anywhere on the labels. I was told long ago (by whom, I can't remember) that as long as the solution foams when you apply it, it is still doing it's thing. It foams (for me) when fresh and when it quits foaming I discard. Anyways, the mold is still dead! It works in my case and I don't plan anytime soon to change my habits till I discover a problem. Just my 2 cents.

I did find bold print warning to not apply via overhead misting systems, however.
