Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

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.

The formulation contains three active ingredients: Chloramphenicol, Prednisolone, and Tetracaine. Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis, effectively combating bacterial infections. Prednisolone is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and suppresses the immune system, aiding in the reduction of swelling and discomfort. Tetracaine is a local anesthetic that works by blocking nerve signals in the affected area, providing relief from pain.

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.

If you have any questions or concerns about the use of Chloramphenicol 0.42%/Prednisolone 0.17%/Tetracaine 0.42% Otic Solution (Vet), please do not hesitate to reach out for further information.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

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 animals. 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. Tetracaine, a local anesthetic, alleviates pain, making the healing process more comfortable for your pet.

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.

Understanding the medications we give our pets is crucial to their health and wellbeing. If you have any questions about Chloramphenicol 0.42%/Prednisolone 0.17%/Tetracaine 0.42% Otic Solution (Vet), or how it works, don't hesitate to reach out for more information. Your pet's health is our priority.

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.
