Anti-microbial Ear Solution


Anti-microbial Ear Solution

Otic-HC 1.0% Enzymatic Solution in 1.25 fl oz

Zymox Plus Otic-HC Enzymatic Solution, 1.25 oz


During a hike a few weeks ago, I had bent down to give Morgaine a drink of water and (in what I can only explain as a slow motion, nooooooooo, kind of moment) the hose from my hydration pack dripped directly into her ear.

She shook her head right away and I hoped that was the end of it…but no. We got home and she continued shaking her head and then started scratching at the bothersome ear as well. I knew we were trouble and I called her Veterinarian, who suggested that I try Zymox Otic-HC 1.0% Enzymatic Solution in 1.25 fl oz.

The product works by stopping bacterial biofilm from forming, which in turn stops the little buggers from proliferating.  She wasn’t thrilled to have the drops placed in her ear (I placed about 4 drops in the affected ear), but she enjoyed the little ear massage that followed.

Within the first hour of applying the solution, she had stopped scratching her ears, and by the second day she had stopped shaking her head. Within a week of using the solution, her ears were back to full health.

I highly recommended this product (but of course, always discuss any treatment with your veterinarian first!).
