Storage
  • Store at room temperature between 59 and 86 degrees F (15-30 degrees C) away from light and moisture.


Overdose
  • If overdose is suspected, contact your local poison control center or emergency room immediately.
  • Otozone may be harmful if swallowed.

How To Use
  • For external use only.
  • Avoid contact with the eyes.
  • For accuracy and to avoid contamination, have another person insert the drops if possible.
  • To apply ear drops, wash hands first.
  • To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your ear or any other surface.
  • Lie on your side or tilt the affected ear upward.
  • Place the dropper directly over the ear and administer the prescribed number of drops (3 or 4 drops are used three or four times daily or as directed).
  • To help the drops roll into the ear (for adults) hold the earlobe up and back or (for children) hold the earlobe down and back.
  • Keep the head tilted for about two minutes or insert a soft cotton plug if so directed (consult your pharmacist).
  • Do not rinse the dropper.
  • Replace cap after use.
  • For best results, Otozone must be used for the full time prescribed, then promptly discontinue use.
  • Stopping Otozone too soon, however, may not clear the infection and may result in a reinfection.
  • Treatment is for 10 days or as directed.
  • If symptoms persist after 10 days, notify your doctor promptly.
  • Otozone should not be placed in the ear if the eardrum is punctured.

Side Effects
  • Burning, itching, irritation, dryness, rash (or other skin problems) might occur.
  • If these persist or worsen, notify your doctor.
  • Very unlikely but report promptly: unusual increase in urination, rounding out of the face, fever, weakness, unusual weight loss, loss of appetite, bulging soft spot on infant s head, headaches, vision problems.
  • If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Precautions
  • Before using Otozone, tell your doctor your medical history, including: allergies, especially drug allergies), infections (e.g., varicella or vaccinia), chronic or prolonged, ear infection (e.g., chronic otitis media).
  • Otozone should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy.
  • Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor.
  • It is not known whether Otozone is excreted into breast milk.
  • Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
  • Prolonged use (months) of Otozone may require temporary use of supplemental corticosteroids (e.g., hydrocortisone) during severe stress (e.g., major surgery or severe injury, or serious infection).
  • This warning applies for one year after stopping use of Otozone.
  • Be sure your doctor and pharmacist know all of your past and present medication use.
  • Children may be more sensitive to the corticosteroid in Otozone, though generally Otozone, used for short periods, is safe.
  • Prolonged (months to years), continued treatment with corticosteroids may interfere with growth in children.

Missed Dose
  • If you miss a dose, use it as soon as you remember.
  • If it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule.
  • Do not double-up the dose to catch up.

Drug Interactions
  • Tell your doctor of all nonprescription and prescription medication you may use.
  • Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
