Troubleshooting
Dog is shaking head excessively after application
This is a common reaction to liquid in the ear. Ensure you are massaging the base of the ear to help distribute the drops and reassure your dog.
Visible redness or irritation increasing
Stop use immediately and contact your veterinarian, as the dog may have an underlying eardrum perforation or a sensitivity to one of the ingredients.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before using Otomax, ensure the ear canal has been cleaned of excess debris or wax as directed by your veterinarian, as this allows the medication to contact the tissue directly. Store the bottle at room temperature, keeping it tightly closed when not in use. Avoid touching the tip of the applicator to the dog's ear or any contaminated surface to prevent bacterial buildup within the bottle. Always complete the entire course of medication prescribed by your veterinarian, even if symptoms appear to resolve early, to prevent the return of the infection.
