Indications and Usage
SYNOTIC Otic Solution Veterinary is indicated for the relief of pruritus and inflammation associated with acute and chronic otitis in the dog.
Dosage and Administration
The recommended dose of SYNOTIC Otic Solution Veterinary is 4 to 6 drops (0.2 mL) per ear administered twice daily into the ear canal for a maximum period of 14 days. The total dosage used should not exceed 17 mL. It is recommended that the affected ear canal be cleansed by some appropriate method prior to the instillation of the solution. Following instillation, gentle external massage of the ear canal may aid in promoting an even distribution of the medication. Care should be taken to avoid contact of the medication with the dog’s eyes. Contact of the bare hand with the medication should also be avoided. Hearing loss has been reported in a small number of dogs after use. If hearing or vestibular dysfunction is noted during the course of treatment, discontinue use of Synotic immediately and flush the ear canal thoroughly with a nonototoxic solution.
