Hi,

Yes, it can be used but percentage of salt sometimes more in ear. Moreover take Hydrocort, under your doctor's guidance. If there are viral causes, it can do so much damage also.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello,

Neomycin and polymyxin sulphates can be used for ear infection and dexamethasone ophthalmic can also be used. That doesn't cause any problem if used in ears. If you aren't confident enough, you can go for Hydrocortisone otic as you had used it earlier.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
