I just heard from the veterinarian that depending on the severity of the ear
infection and whether or not the ear drum has any "leaks" that any ear drops
can be toxic. I have a very sick bunny with an ear infection that I am
treating with antibiotic baytril and was going to use my son's "swimmer's ear"
ear drops with antibioticand hydrocortisone until I was warned by the vet that
if there is any hole in the ear drum it could leak into the inner ear with
toxic results. Thrush may be mild compared to the other troubles she could
bring upon herself.
Good luck,
Cindy

Subject: CS-Ear infection
Hi!
My wife has an ear infection. The Doctor prescribed an antibiotic which she
is unwilling to take due to previous unpleasant experiences with thrush.
Apart from taking an increased dose of oral CS, has anyone any experience
in placing CS directly
in the ear. As a rough guess I would say that it would be safe and
effective. If you can place it directly in the eyes
then its use for ears should be effective and safe?
We use a home brewed CS which is around 10ppm.
Anyone help!
Thanks, Rob
