Introduction

Otin N 5ml ear drop 1s is a multifunctional medication comprising Neomycin, Beclomethasone, Clotrimazole, and Lignocaine HCl. This combination is designed to halt bacterial growth on the skin, effectively treating infections like boils, impetigo, and infected hair follicles. By inhibiting the bacteria's protein synthesis, it is also suitable for use on small cuts or wounds. It typically exhibits prompt results, and consistent use throughout the prescribed period is crucial for optimal effectiveness.

Neomycin prevents bacterial growth, Beclomethasone reduces inflammation, Clotrimazole addresses fungal infections, and Lignocaine HCl provides local anesthesia to alleviate discomfort. Together, they create a synergistic effect to combat skin issues effectively

Follow your doctor's instructions, applying it three to four times daily. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and promptly inform your doctor. Consistent application is crucial for optimal results, and any adverse reactions or concerns should be communicated to your doctor during the treatment.

Common side effects of it may include stinging, drowsiness, skin rash, nausea, and vomiting. Monitoring for these effects is important, and if they persist or worsen, seeking advice from your healthcare provider is recommended.

Several special precautions should be considered when using it. Avoid contact with the eyes, rinsing thoroughly if accidental exposure occurs. Prolonged use without medical supervision is not advised. Discontinue use if irritation or allergic reactions develop. Consult a healthcare professional regarding its use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Keep the medication out of reach of children.

If you forgot to take a dose, skip it and resume your regular schedule. Avoid applying extra drops to compensate, as this can lead to issues. Consistent use is crucial for optimal results. Consulting your healthcare provider for advice on managing missed doses ensures proper care for your ears.

How it works

It is a mix of four medicines. Neomycin is an antibiotic that stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins needed for bacteria to function. Beclometasone, a steroid, blocks the production of certain chemical messengers causing inflammation and allergies. Clotrimazole, an antifungal medication, destroys the fungal cell membrane to treat the infection. Lidocaine, a local anesthetic, works by blocking pain signals from nerves to the brain, reducing the sensation of pain.
