Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Amoxicillin with Doxycycline and Polymyxin and Trimethoprim are the antibiotics which are used to treat ear infections.
The course of these antibiotics is from 5 days to 7 days, sometimes extending to 10 days, depending on the severity and nature of the infection.
If you are allergic to Amoxicillin, you could replace it with another group of broad spectrum antibiotic like Ciprofloxacin.
Kindly follow the advise as given by your treating doctor.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
