im not sure exactly the answer to this but when i worked in a pharmacy pills usualy only lose their effectiveness after the exp. date. so i would assume creams would do this too.

Some medications can become downright dangerous after the expiration date. However some medications can last many years after their exp date. Maybe you should look up that particular medication and find out.
