I don't think so because most soaps are approved by the FDA, who puts an expiration date on the soaps, and they do not guarantee it to be good after the expiration date. I'm pretty sure that the expiration date on the one you have or are asking about is passed, more than likely.

It would depend on the active ingredient and how it was stored.

Regardless of the ingredient, I don't think it's going to make much difference since some studies have shown regular soaps works just as good as antibacterial soaps at killing germs.

People need to be careful when using antibacterial soaps just like taking antibiotics. Basically, germs can mutate/build immunities and cause worse problems down the road.
