About Drep-O Ear Drops 5 ml

Drep-O Ear Drops 5 ml is used to treat ear infections and ear conditions such as otalgia (ear pain), acute otitis media (middle ear infection), and otitis externa (inflammation of the outer ear canal). Otalgia is ear pain, which can result from infections, injuries, or underlying health conditions.

Otitis Externa is an infection or inflammation of the outer ear canal, often triggered by bacteria, moisture, or injury.
