Relief of ear pain, congestion, and discomfort associated with otitis media (middle ear inflammation), otitis externa (swimmer's ear), or ear congestion from colds and allergies.

For otic use only; avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Do not use if eardrum is perforated or if there is discharge from the ear. Not recommended for use in children under 12 without medical supervision. Consult a healthcare provider if symptoms worsen or persist beyond 7 days.
