An outer ear infection is almost always treated with ear drops that contain an antibiotic. Once a doctor has evaluated you or your child’s condition, the doctor may decide that FLOXIN Otic or FLOXIN Otic SINGLES should be used. FLOXIN Otic or FLOXIN Otic SINGLES is used to fight specific bacteria that can cause outer ear infections. The ear drop medicine is put in the ear where the bacteria are living. With ear drops, the body will not be unnecessarily exposed to antibiotics.
