Virbac Epi-Otic Advanced Ear Cleaner for Dogs & Cats, 4-oz bottle

My dog is very active and likes to swim in our doggy pool and run around in the rain, so it was essential I get a decent ear cleaner to prevent water build up inside his ears and ear infections. I make sure to use Virbac Epi-Otic at least once a week and it has been amazing! The smell is not overbearing and my dog NEVER itches/rubs his ears and has never once gotten an ear infection. My only recommendation is that I wish they had a larger bottle! I've had the 4 oz bottle for a month and it's almost gone from using it once a week on one dog.

ButterCreme has one ear that gets gunky. she is pretty good about letting me put this in. i use a clean, new eye dropper rather than guessing by squirting it with the bottle and have my cotton balls ready after massaging the base of her ear. its messy, but its working. after she shakes her ear i clean as much wet stuff as possible and gently brush the remainder out later. her ear does not seem to bother her like it did.

Only complaint is that this formula smells like windex or a similar chemical fume. I didn't put product directly in my cat's ear but rather took a cotton ball with some applied to it and carefully rubbed around my cat's ear and right inside the flap, ear mite residue was completely gone. I use about twice a week and intervene ear mite treatment between cleansing days.

My vet recommends this product to all of his patients, and I can tell why. This is hands down the best ear cleaner I have ever used. My family used it on our boxer who had mast cell tumors and was severely itchy all the time because of this cancer, including in his ears. He loved getting his ears cleaned, and it significantly reduced the inflammation and itching. I now use it on my springer spaniel, a breed very prone to nasty ears, who enjoys dunking her head into water. I use this product once a week on her, plus any other days she gets wet, and her ears are absolutely perfect. There is never any wax and her ears are never inflamed. There were a couple months in her life where I tried a different My vet recommends this product to all of his patients, and I can tell why. This is hands down the best ear cleaner I have ever used.

As soon as I said goodbye to that product and went back to this, her ears went back to normal. … more

My cat has had no issue with her ears other than occasional wax. But I was told that I should regularly clean her ears anyways so I purchased this product. When I tried it on my normally very calm ragdoll cat, she yeowed like she never did before. And after a few days, one of her ears had more wax/discharge than she normally would get in months. In that same ear, she developed two bumps/cysts which she’s never had before. I then found out this product had a Fakespot rating of D so I’m now really dubious of all the positive reviews.

I used to only be able to get this from the vet.. So glad Chewy sells it. I have used this for all of my dogs and the only ear cleaner that really works, keeps ears clean, dry and free from mites.. Highly recommended !!!

I worked at a veterinary clinic for years and epi-otic is the best! I love having this on hand for my dog. His ears can get dirty at times. In the summer his ears tend to get the worst and I love being able to clean his ears when he gets a bath

I just began using this ear cleaner, but the reviews are positive on chewy. Our Aussie mix has itchy ears. I had no problem using this product on Ruby. I am hopeful the problem is solved.

Our 7 month old had been to vet twice since we got him at 8 weeks, because his ears were so messy. The first it was sad to be ear mites. They medicated it, the second time it was just so much gunk. They told me just to clean them as needed. Which was heavily every day. After 3 uses of this wash he has has had 3 days gunk free. It’s a big deal for our family.

30 years ago my vet in Medford, Oregon, used Epi-Otic on my dogs. I had a big pack and had lots of ears to keep clean but had to buy this from the vet. I’ve moved around a lot since then and tried other products but I am back to Epi-Otic for good. So happy Chewy carries it.
