Are cortisporin drops safe to use in my dogs ears?

最佳回答：

Cortisporin Otic can be used to treat some bacterial ear infections in dogs. However, Brynlee's ears should be examined by her vet prior to starting any ear medication because complications can arise if there is damage to her tympanic membrane (ear drum). Also, many ear infections in dogs are due to yeast or a combination of both yeast and bacteria. Cortisporin is an antibiotic ointment, so it will only treat a bacterial component of an ear infection and not a yeast (fungal) infection. In short, while it may be safe to use, it would be best to take Brynlee to her vet to have her ears examined so that the safest and most effective medication can be started. I hope this helps and that all goes well!
