Generic Name: acetic acid
Brand Name: acetic acid otic (ear)
Prescribed for ear infection at local walk in clinic. Had ear tube but it apparently came out and infection started again. Had used this once before and had a large amount of pain. No different this time. Perhaps even worse. Felt like a drill in my ear. Extremely painful. Had me hopping all over the place for 10 mins.
I have been taking these drops for awhile now. I have an allergic reaction to yeast, which tends to build up in my ears. Taking these drops help control this. I have much faith in it
I had itchy ears & asked my doctor to take a look. My doctor told me not to use qtips to "clean" my ears!! They scratch the surface of the ear canal & cause inflammation & itch. She gave me these drops, & they worked like a charm! No more itch!! I made a pact with my doctor that I'll use qtips only occasionally, & when I use them, I'll limit their use to 1-2 turns.
I used acetic acid otic 2% for ear fungus diagnosed by my last doctor after a previous doctor had tried repeatedly to cure my ear discharge with three types of anti-bacterail drops. The acetic acid cured my ear discharge promptly.
I have a bad inner ear infection. The doctor gave me antiobiotics and this type of ear drops to use. I used them for the first time a few minutes ago. After having them in my ear canal for about 30 seconds I got an earache. After I sat up and some of the drops came out my ear stopped hurting. I'm going to give it a few more tries before I give up. I hate earaches....
I just started using this today. The pain in my ear started on Mon. After using the drops, I did continue to have sharp pains periodically. My ear is more tender and sore to touch then earlier today. Could be just the infection running it's course...
When applied, it hurt terribly. It felt like the worst earache I've ever had or worse. After 4 applications, I could not take the pain anymore and stopped its use.
