Zymox Otic Enzymatic Ear Solution with Hydrocortisone & Ear Cleanser Combo Pack for Ear Infection Relief - 1.25 oz & 4 oz

Stop the cycle of head-shaking and ear sensitivity that disrupts your horse's focus and performance. This Zymox combo provides a professional-grade, antibiotic-free solution to tackle stubborn aural plaques and infections without the stress of painful pre-cleaning.

Engineered with the patented LP3 Enzyme System, this solution works with the body’s natural chemistry to destroy bacteria, yeast, and fungi on contact. For the equestrian, this means no more aggressive scrubbing of sensitive ears; the "no-clean" protocol is a game-changer for horses that are head-shy or suffering from painful inflammation caused by black fly bites and secondary infections.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Patented LP3 Enzyme System: Utilizes a bio-active blend of Lactoperoxidase, Lysozyme, and Lactoferrin to eliminate microbes without the risk of antibiotic resistance.
• No-Clean Protocol: Specifically formulated to react with organic debris, removing the need for painful flushing or scrubbing before application—ideal for sensitive or "ear-shy" horses.
• Hydrocortisone Relief: Includes 0.5% Hydrocortisone to provide immediate relief from the intense itching and inflammation associated with acute otitis and aural plaques.
• Complete Treatment & Maintenance: Features a 1.25 oz Otic Solution for active infection management and a 4 oz Ear Cleanser for long-term hygiene and prevention.
• Horse-Sized Volume: The 1.25 oz bottle is sized to provide one full 7-to-14-day treatment course, ensuring the large equine ear canal can be filled daily for maximum efficacy.
• Broad-Spectrum Efficacy: Proven effective against resistant pathogens including Pseudomonas, MRSA, and Malassezia pachydermatitis commonly found in stable environments.
• Safe for All Ages: An antibiotic-free, non-toxic formula that is safe for horses of all ages, from foals to senior performance mounts.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Can I use this if I am competing in USEF or FEI sanctioned events?
A: Because this specific Zymox formula contains Hydrocortisone, it is classified as a restricted corticosteroid. We recommend a 72-hour withdrawal period or filing a medication report form before showing to ensure full compliance with competition drug rules.

Q: Is the 1.25 oz bottle enough for a horse’s ear?
A: Yes. While a horse’s ear canal is significantly larger than a dog's, the 1.25 oz bottle is designed to provide one complete 7-to-14-day treatment course. The included 4 oz cleaner provides the necessary volume for long-term maintenance once the infection is cleared.

Q: How does this help with Aural Plaques?
A: While plaques themselves are viral, they often lead to secondary fungal or bacterial infections from fly bites. Zymox manages these secondary infections and the associated inflammation, making the ears less sensitive to touch and fly irritation.
