UsesMometamax Otic Suspension is indicated for the treatment of ear infection in pets caused by susceptible strains of yeast and bacteria.
Possible Side EffectsPlease contact your veterinarian if the following adverse reactions occur: hearing loss or balance problems, increased drinking and urination, weight gain, diarrhea, and vomiting.
Drug & Food InteractionsIf hypersensitivity to any of the components occurs, treatment should be discontinued and appropriate therapy instituted. Associated use of drugs known to induce ear toxicity should be avoided. Do not use in pets with known perforation of eardrums.
Precautions
Before instilling any medication into the ear, examine the external ear canal thoroughly to be certain the outer and middle ear is not ruptured in order to avoid the possibility of transmitting infection, as well as damaging the inner ear from prolonged contact. Administration of recommended doses beyond seven days may result in delayed wound healing. If overgrowth of non-susceptible bacteria or fungi occurs, treatment should be discontinued, and appropriate therapy instituted. Avoid ingestion. Pets should be closely observed for sodium retention, potassium loss, fluid retention, weight gain, excessive thirst, and/or excessive dilute urine. Prolonged use or over-dosage may produce adverse effects.

Works great but how do I get it out of her ear fur after?
By Sweetpea on Feb 6, 2021
Easy to use, cleared up ear infection in 3 short days. My dog didn't mind it at all. My only question is how do I get it out of her fur? I tried a bath, paper towel, wipe and it's super greasy and matted.

Worked great!
By LoriW on Jan 1, 2021
My poor Sadie had a bad ear infection and our vet packed it with antibiotics. Three weeks later and it wasn't getting any better. Our vet couldn't see her for another 2 weeks to I called another vet who prescribed Mometamax. Sadie's ear infection was gone within 7 days.

Not too Bad
By PamF on Feb 5, 2021
The medicine is not bad. Have used other medicines in the past that seemed to work better. After a full 1-week of using, it seems to be helping

My dog is now deaf
By Sylvia on Sep 24, 2020
After 3 days taking these drops in both ears, my dog no longer hears me. Reacts to nothing. I am so peed off and talking to the Vet today it was known issue and didn't think it was important enough to tell me??!! I am furious!!

Item good. Not Service
By Krybaby on Jun 21, 2020
I took my dog to the Vet and was given this prescription. I ordered it immediately on June 11 from Chewy because I was told it was fast & cheaper. My dog had a serious ear infection and beside antibiotics and another Med, the Vet wanted this right away. I opted not to buy there $$$. Here I sit on June 21st and it still hasn’t arrived although I also called days ago and said to expedit it because it was needed! VERY disappointed. VERY disappointed. Food they get here quickly but a prescription NOT. I had to call the Vet for alternatives while my boy suffered.
