Whats That
CHLOROMYCETIN EAR DROPS 5ML belongs to a group of medicines called 'antibiotics' used to reduce pain and discomfort associated with an ear infection (bacterial). Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Pain may be dull or sharp, constant, or may come and go.
CHLOROMYCETIN EAR DROPS 5ML is a combination drug containing: Chloramphenicol (antibiotic) and Benzocaine (local anaesthetic). Chloramphenicol works by interfering with the formation of essential proteins required for bacterial growth. Benzocaine blocks the pain signals from the nerves to the brain, numbing the area and relieving pain. Collectively, both of them help to get relief from ear pain.
CHLOROMYCETIN EAR DROPS 5ML is for otic (ear) use only. Depending on your medical condition, you are advised to use CHLOROMYCETIN EAR DROPS 5ML for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as redness, flaking of the skin, stinging, burning or itching sensation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
