How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Acetic Acid 2% in Aluminum Acetate Otic Solution is a specialized liquid formulation designed for targeted treatment of various ear conditions. The solution combines the anti-inflammatory properties of acetic acid and aluminum acetate to alleviate irritation in the ear.

Acetic acid in the solution works to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, which are often the underlying cause of these ear conditions. Aluminum acetate, on the other hand, helps to soothe itching and irritation, providing relief to the patient. The solution is typically administered in the form of ear drops, under the guidance of a healthcare provider.

For conditions like Otitis Externa, Swimmer's Ear, and Malignant Otitis Externa, the solution can effectively reduce inflammation and irritation. It also helps to control the growth of bacteria and fungi, thereby alleviating the symptoms of these conditions.

In cases of Acute Otitis Media and Chronic Otitis Media, the solution not only reduces inflammation and irritation but also helps to control bacterial and fungal growth. Additionally, it aids in reducing the amount of fluid in the middle ear, which can help to alleviate the symptoms of these conditions.

Patients are advised to avoid contact with eyes and to immediately report any adverse reactions to their healthcare provider. For any further queries about Acetic Acid 2% in Aluminum Acetate Otic Solution or its application in treating these disease states, please feel free to reach out.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
