Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present our compounded formulation of Hydrocortisone 1%/Gentamicin 3.2 mg/ml/Polymyxin B 10,000 U/ml Otic Solution (Vet). This specialized liquid formulation is specifically designed for otic use, providing targeted treatment for various ear conditions in animals. It is administered using a specific ear dropper or applicator as directed.

The solution is a potent combination of three active ingredients: Hydrocortisone, Gentamicin, and Polymyxin B. Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid that effectively reduces inflammation and swelling in the ear. Gentamicin and Polymyxin B are antibiotics that work in tandem to combat bacterial infections and minimize the risk of subsequent infections.

It is also beneficial in addressing bacterial and fungal infections of the ear. The targeted nature of this otic solution ensures that the medication is delivered directly to the affected area, providing relief and promoting healing.

If you have any queries about this formulation or its application in treating ear infections in animals, please do not hesitate to contact us. Our team of experienced pharmacists is always ready to assist and provide the necessary information.

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

This Hydrocortisone 1%/Gentamicin 3.2 mg/ml/Polymyxin B 10,000 U/ml Otic Solution (Vet) is a liquid formulation specifically designed for use in the ear canal of dogs and cats. It is primarily used for the treatment of bacterial infections of the external ear canal and otitis externa caused by susceptible organisms. However, it is not indicated for the treatment of fungal or viral infections.

It is crucial to note that this formulation may interact with other medications your pet may be taking, including antibiotics, antifungals, and corticosteroids. Therefore, it is essential to inform your veterinarian of any other medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, or supplements your pet is currently on.

This formulation may also interact with certain foods. Hence, any dietary changes or food allergies your pet may have should be communicated to your veterinarian. This formulation should not be used in animals with a known hypersensitivity to any of the components of the formulation.

Caution is advised when using this formulation in animals with a history of renal or hepatic disease, as it may cause an increase in serum creatinine or liver enzymes. If you have any questions or concerns about the use of this formulation, it is recommended to consult with your veterinarian or a veterinary healthcare professional.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

This otic solution is a compounded formulation specifically designed for veterinary use, containing three active ingredients: Hydrocortisone 1%, Gentamicin 3.2 mg/ml, and Polymyxin B 10,000 U/ml.

The solution is administered directly into the ear canal of the affected animal, using a specific ear dropper or applicator. Prior to use, it is recommended to warm the solution to body temperature to ensure comfort and efficacy. The solution should be instilled into the ear canal and gently massaged to ensure thorough distribution. The recommended dosage is twice daily for a period of 7-10 days, or as directed by a veterinary professional.

It is crucial to avoid using this otic solution in animals with a known hypersensitivity to any of the active ingredients. Additionally, it should not be used in animals with a perforated eardrum, as this could lead to further complications. Always consult with a veterinary professional if you have any questions or concerns about the suitability of this treatment for your animal.

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.
