Otomax Ointment

Otomax ointment by Merck is a treatment for ear infections due to bacteria or yeast. It is labeled for use in dogs, but veterinarians will frequently prescribe it for cats, horses, and other animals as well. 
Otomax contains three separate medicines - gentamicin, betamethasone, and clotrimazole, and thus can be used for many different types of ear infection.

Ensure the ear canal is clean and dry before administering Otomax ointment. Trimming away hair from the application spot can help ensure accurate dosing. Massage the medication into the ear as best you can while wearing gloves.
