Neosporin H Ear Drops 5Ml

Neosporin H Ear Drops is used to manage bacterial outer ear infections and post-surgical ear canal conditions to relieve pain and swelling.

Uses of Neosporin H Ear Drops are:

• Outer Ear Infections: Treats bacterial infections of the ear canal (otitis externa) and eases localised swelling.
• Post-operative Care: Supports healing and prevents bacterial infection following ear surgical procedures.
• Symptom Relief: Eases ear pain, itching, redness, and inflammation caused by bacterial growth.

• Clean and dry your outer ear thoroughly before using the drops.
• Lie down with the affected ear facing upwards.
• Instil the drops into your ear while maintaining this position.
• Remain lying down for 5 minutes to allow the medicine to penetrate into your ear canal.
• To avoid contamination, ensure the dropper tip does not touch your ear, fingers or other surfaces.
• After each use, close the bottle tightly.

Neosporin-H Ear Drops are instilled topically.

Neosporin-H Ear Drops works in a synergistic manner due to its three active ingredients:

• Polymyxin B (10000 IU): Polymyxin B is an antibiotic derived from Bacillus polymyxa. It also disrupts bacterial cell membranes, leading to cell death.
• Neomycin (3400 IU): Neomycin is an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces fradiae. It works by disrupting bacterial cell membranes and inhibiting protein synthesis, leading to bacterial cell death.
• Hydrocortisone (10 mg): This is a corticosteroid that manages inflammation by suppressing the immune response in the body. It helps reduce the swelling, itching, and discomfort associated with ear infections.

Together, these components provide effective coverage against several bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, Klebsiella-Enterobacter species, Neisseria species, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

• Store Neosporin-H Ear Drops at room temperature, ideally between 15°-25°C.
• Keep the medicine away from light and avoid freezing.
• Do not allow the dropper tip to touch your ear, fingers or any other surfaces to prevent contamination.
• Always close the bottle tightly after use.
• Keep out of reach of children.

• Avoid swimming or showering right after using Neosporin-H Ear Drops to ensure the medicine works effectively.
• Refrain from inserting any foreign objects into your ear, such as cotton buds, as they can push wax further into the ear canal, potentially causing infection.
