The Enzymatic Skin Cream isn't recommended to use in the ears, you would want to use the Zymox Otic.

Works Great!
My boxer mix was scratching at his neck so much it was getting red and sometimes bled. I thought it may be his collar but after 3 different collars, he was still scratching. I found this product online and gave it a try. The difference was apparent in only a few days. He stopped scratching and the redness went away. I would definitely recommend this product !

GREAT PRODUCT!
My 3yr old Lab had a horrible wound on his ear from where his smaller, but older brother bit and pulled his ear through our baby gate. It was a very deep cut, I was afraid it would get infected. So I did some research on Chewy and decided on this cream. Before I put the cream on the cut was very swollen, and purple. It was located on a difficult spot so I couldn't bandage it. It wouldn't fully scab over either. I cleaned it with wound wash and then started the cream, 2 times a day. Within a week the skin was closed up, no longer swollen or purple. The cut left a bump, but it looks so much better and I can tell it isn't bothering him anymore. I am so happy that I bought this. If your fur children have any skin issues or cuts I would definitely recommend this! So thankful for Chewy, making it easy to get good products for my babies.

false advertising:
I was just in the vet yesterday with my cousin who’s cat had a wound that wasn’t healing, she put zymox on it and it didn’t help. The vet looked in to zymox and this medication shouldn’t be used on wounds (as zymox has it on their package) because it has a steroid in it. It would be great for something a little as a irritated red inflamed skin but NOT wounds. If your animal has an open wound PLEASE do not use this product. It will not heal! Go to the vet!

Skin problem
I purchased this product for what I felt was a very unuasual skin problem and it cleared it up very nicely. Because it delt with other kinds of germs besides bacterial, I feel that it did what I needed it to do. Skin is healthy and in fine shape.

The 5 stars are for the 1% cream (this is 0.5%)
There is a version of the Zymox topical cream with 1% hydrocortisone available from Chewy. I believe that the product pictured here is for the 0.5% cream. I would buy the 1%, because it provides more itch relief. My Maine Coon has "allergy ears" at various times during the year, and he scratches so hard he causes bleeding (I try to keep his back nails trimmed because of this). This topical cream, applied once a day for 2 or 3 days to the base and tips of ears, eases itching and dries out the wounded areas.

Contains Propylene Glycol!
I bought this specifically because it says it is “safe to lick” - that is absolutely not true, even according to the tube directions! I just bought this, January 12, 2022. Even the tube has a large warning stamped on it stating, “Avoid contact with mucous membranes..For external use only (big letters)..NOT FOR USE ON HUMANS..”
So it most definitely is not “safe for licking”. If you have a cat, they will ingest it.
I am furious to have to police products that these companies sell for animals - I should be able to trust the label. I trusted this company!
TLDR: Propylene Glycol is toxic to cats and dogs, even at small doses.

Does help with her chin acne
My cat has terrible chin acne and pulls out hair from her belly and lower legs. This cream does help. I do have to take her for allergy shots too.
