Chloramphenicol 0.42%/Prednisolone 0.17%/Tetracaine 0.42% Otic Solution (Vet) is a specialized liquid formulation designed for targeted treatment of various ear conditions in pets. It is primarily used in the treatment of bacterial and inflammatory ear infections in dogs and cats, including conditions such as otitis externa and otitis media.

When combined, these three components work synergistically to provide a comprehensive treatment approach. They work together to reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and treat bacterial infections, providing relief for your pet. This formulation is generally well tolerated, but may cause local irritation or a burning sensation in some animals.

It is important to use this formulation as directed by your veterinarian. If any adverse reactions occur, such as increased redness, swelling, or discomfort, it is crucial to contact your veterinarian immediately. This formulation is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the components.

This unique combination of three active ingredients - Chloramphenicol, Prednisolone, and Tetracaine - works synergistically to combat ear infections and associated symptoms.

Chloramphenicol, an antibiotic, halts the growth of bacteria, effectively treating bacterial infections. Prednisolone, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation and swelling, providing relief from discomfort.

This formulation is particularly effective in treating bacterial and fungal ear infections, as well as the inflammation and pain that often accompany these conditions. It is administered directly into the ear canal using a specific ear dropper or applicator, as directed by your veterinarian. After application, the solution should be gently massaged into the ear canal and allowed to remain for several minutes before being wiped away with a clean cloth. It is crucial to avoid contact with the eyes and other sensitive areas during application.

While this formulation is generally well tolerated, some animals may experience side effects such as redness, itching, or burning in the ear. If these or any other side effects occur, it is important to immediately contact your veterinarian for advice.
