Tips for using Zymox Otic
Zymox Otic contains hydrocortisone to treat inflamed or red ears. This ear solution provides a non invasive treatment option; do not clean ears during or before treatment to ensure enzyme activity is preserved. This medication can also be used for animals sensitive to antibiotics, exotic animals or rodents, or problematic or difficult pets.
Horse Ear Care
A horse's ears can say a lot about the animal. They can be pinned, indicating the horse is upset; droopy, signaling a sleepy animal; or pricked, showing high alert. Typically, the ears on a healthy horse do not require much care, but there are a few things you can do to ensure that the ears remain healthy throughout the animal's life. Flying and biting insects such as mosquitoes are often attracted to the sensitive, thin skin inside the horse's ear. These types of bugs will try to lay eggs or feed in the horse's ears, leaving the animal frustrated and tossing its head to try to relieve itself of the pests. Use a roll-on or gel fly repellant in the horse's ears to deter bugs, or put a fly mask with ear covers on the horse when turned out.
Horses have excellent hearing and can become agitated by strange sounds when at a show, in a parade or at any another event where there are plenty of loud noises. These sounds may cause the animal to become frightened or upset, so some owners put cotton balls or earplugs in the horse to minimize the effects of the noise. A horse's ears often become very sensitive to touch if aural plaques develop in the ears. These plaques are lumpy lesions in the ear that have a cauliflower-like texture and appearance and are spread by biting gnats and flies. The animal may become head shy and be difficult to work with if it develops these lesions. Consult your veterinarian for treatment options.
If a horse's ears are in pain or discomfort, the animal will exhibit signs such as rubbing its ears against a fence or flicking them back and forth repeatedly even though no bugs are present. When ridden, the horse may throw its head repeatedly or shake it as though attempting to dislodge a foreign object. In some cases, the horse may stand with its head tilted at an unnatural angle. If
the cause of the problem is not apparent and easily removed, consult a veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment.

How Is Zymox Used?
Zymox has a range of versatile products designed to provide relief from or prevent ear infections in dogs, cats, and horses as well as skin infections in dogs and cats.
An ear infection, acute or chronic otitis, is caused by bacteria, yeast, or fungus and is just as painful and uncomfortable for pets as it is for humans. Zymox offers enzymatic solutions and cleansers that are highly effective at treating this common problem.
Zymox Otic is an enzymatic solution that provides many benefits. It cleans your pet's ears while treating or preventing ear infections. You can get Zymox Otic with or without hydrocortisone. Choose the solution with hydrocortisone if your pet has red, inflamed ears that need soothing. The solution without hydrocortisone is best if you wish to use the product for an extended period of time.
Applying Zymox Otic
To use Zymox Otic, you do not need to clean your pet's ear first. Pre-cleaning the ear can disrupt the enzymatic activity in the ear.
- Simply apply the solution liberally in the affected ear, filling the ear canal.
- Gently massage the ear so that the solution makes its way through the ear canal.
- Wipe away any excess solution.
- Do this once daily for 7 days.
- If your pet has a chronic ear infection, you will need to use the treatment for 14 days.
- Zymox Otic WITHOUT hydrocortisone is safe and effective for extended use to prevent ear infections.
What is great about Zymox Otic is that it is a simple, easy way to treat your pet's ear problems. A complicated regimen of cleansers and medicine can be difficult to stick to, especially if your animal is protective of their ears. Your pet will appreciate that there is only a single daily application of this product.
