Hi Dr. O
Fortunately I have not had to visit the site much of late. But as always with horses eventually they will need some "doctoring". Hence my question, I have some dmso leg paint that has been in my trailer for about 5 months. Airtight, plastic container that my vet admin. it to me in. It has been out of light but in fluctuating temps. Can I still safely use it on my horse?
I read the article on storage but no mention of temp. was made.

Thanks for your help!

Lil

If it is clear with no precipitant and still smells like DMSO and did not have any drugs or chemicals added to it, it should be fine.
