Acetik-HC Ear Drop is a combination of two medicines. Hydrocortisone is a steroid that works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation (redness and swelling) and allergies. Acetic acid has an antibacterial and antifungal property. It prevents the growth of microorganisms to prevent infections.

If you miss a dose of Acetik-HC Ear Drop, skip it and continue with your normal schedule. Do not double the dose.

Acetik-HC Ear Drop is used to ease pain, swelling associated with some ear infections.

Put drops in the ear without touching the dropper to the ear. Stay on the side for 2 minutes or put a cotton plug in the ear.

Do not try to clean inside your ear with cotton buds. If you stick buds or other objects into your ear, they can further damage your ear. Just wipe the outside of your ear with a clean cloth or tissue if any discharge appears. 

Do not use the medicine for a long time without a doctor’s consultation.

Make sure not to use the open bottle more than 4 weeks.
