Overview

This generic Otomize Spray is a fast-acting prescription treatment for painful outer ear infections (otitis externa).
With its unique triple-action formula: antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and antiseptic - it quickly relieves pain, reduces swelling, and clears infection directly at the source.


What is Otomize


Otitis externa can leave you struggling with constant ear pain, itching, discharge, and blocked hearing. Ordinary painkillers only mask the symptoms, but Otomize Spray treats the infection head-on.

Each spray contains:

  • Neomycin: a powerful antibiotic that kills infection-causing bacteria.
  • Dexamethasone: a corticosteroid that calms inflammation and reduces swelling.
  • Acetic acid: an antiseptic that helps restore the natural balance inside the ear.


By combining three proven ingredients in one easy-to-use spray, Otomize offers rapid relief and lasting results. Many patients feel more comfortable within 48 hours, with most infections clearing completely after a short course.

Directions

  • One spray into the affected ear three times a day, or as directed by your prescriber.
  • Use for the full course, even if symptoms improve early.
  • Do not use for longer than 7 days unless advised by a healthcare professional.

Side Effects

Most people tolerate Otomize well, but some may experience mild side effects.

Common (may affect up to 1 in 10 people):

  • Temporary stinging or irritation in the ear
  • Mild itching or dryness


Less common (may affect up to 1 in 100 people):

  • Rash around the ear
  • Thinning of the skin with prolonged use (due to the steroid)


Rare but serious (seek urgent advice):

  • Severe allergic reaction (swelling of face, lips, or difficulty breathing)
  • Worsening ear pain or hearing loss


Disclaimer: This is not a complete list of side effects. Always read the patient information leaflet that comes with your medicine for full details. If you notice anything unusual or concerning, stop using the spray and seek medical advice promptly. In an emergency, call 999 or go to A&E.

Warnings

  • Not suitable if allergic to neomycin, dexamethasone, or acetic acid.
  • Avoid if you have a perforated eardrum, unless prescribed by a specialist.
  • Prolonged use may increase risk of fungal infection.
  • Always complete the full course to prevent recurrence.
