How To Use EarSol-HC Otic
To make sure that the right amount of medication is given, and
to avoid touching the ear with the dropper, have another person
insert the drops if possible. To lower the risk of dizziness, hold
the container in your hand for a few minutes in order to warm
it.
To apply ear drops, wash your hands first. To avoid
contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your
ear or any other surface. Lie on your side or tilt the affected ear
upward. Hold the dropper directly over the ear, and place the
prescribed number of drops into the ear canal, usually up to 3 to 4
times daily or as directed by your doctor. To help the drops roll
into the ear of an adult, hold the earlobe up and back. In
children, hold the earlobe down and back. Keep the head tilted for
about 5 minutes or insert a soft cotton plug if so directed. Repeat
for the other ear if so directed. Do not rinse the dropper. Replace
the cap after use.
Do not use in the eye.
Tell your doctor if your condition persists for more than 7 days
or if it worsens.
