<p>mom60, I hope your son’s ear infection goes away with the correct treatment. At least your son learned something - the pharmacists are there to help you. Your S needs to keep his ear dry to speed up the healing.</p>
<p>My D had an ear infection that got worse with the “regular” antibacterial ear drops. Turns out, the drops contained a mixture of 3 drugs, and one of them was causing some sort of an allegic reaction. Her doctor decided to try a different antibiotic without any “additives”. This happened right after the USPS anthrax scare, and the name Cipro was all over the news, so when the doctor said, “Here is some Cipro for your ear”, DD’s eyes became really large, “Do you mean I have anthrax in my ear?” :eek: LOL! Otic Cipro cleared her infection very quickly.</p>
