How often should FLOXIN Otic be given?
In patients with an Ear Canal Infection (Swimmers Ear), FLOXIN Otic ear drops should be given once daily at about the same time each day (for example, 8 AM or 8 PM) in each infected ear unless the doctor has instructed otherwise. In patients with a Middle Ear Infection, FLOXIN Otic ear drops should be given 2 times each day (about 12 hours apart, for example 8 AM and 8 PM) in each infected ear unless the doctor has instructed otherwise. The best times to use the ear drops are in the morning and at night. It is very important to use the ear drops for as long as the doctor has instructed, even if the symptoms improve. If FLOXIN Otic ear drops are not used for as long as the doctor has instructed, the infection may be more likely to return. What if a dose is missed? In patients with an Ear Canal Infection (Swimmers Ear), it is important that you take the drops every day. If you miss a dose which may have been scheduled for earlier in the day, (for example, 8 AM), you should take that days
