Can I use tick spot-on treatments if they're past their expiry date?

Sometimes you just need a little break from the daily grind to properly clear your head. I recently came across Posido Casino https://posidowin.com/ and was surprised at how smoothly everything runs there. I had a bit of a run of bad luck on the slots at first, but after risking a little more on a table game, the win I’d been hoping for came through and really made my evening. If you fancy a bit of a change, you should definitely check it out.
I’ve read on a few different sites that spot-on pipettes can last for up to 3 years past their expiry date, provided they’re still in the original foil packaging.
I didn’t check the expiry date and it expired back in May 2023. I put it on my cat about 5 hours ago, and now she’s drooling a bit—not a lot, but a tiny bit—from her mouth. I don’t know if she’s picked something else up or if it was the spot-on treatment 😭😭
Expired flea and tick treatments can cause skin inflammation, allergies, and dermatitis. Plus, if your pet ends up licking the area, they could have stomach and intestinal issues.
I’d recommend binning them and buying some new ones; it’ll work out much cheaper in the long run than a trip to the vet for all the problems they can cause.
