Description:
Biomycetin Ear Drop is an antibiotic that fights bacteria. It is instilled in the ear to treat infections of the ear caused by bacteria. It works by killing the bacteria that cause these problems.
Biomycetin Ear Drop helps to improve your symptoms and cure the underlying infection. Follow your doctor’s instructions precisely for administering this medicine in the ear. Wait for at least 5 minutes before applying any other medication to the same ear. It should be used regularly at evenly spaced time intervals as prescribed by your doctor. Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Stopping the medicine too early may lead to the infection returning or worsening.
