The reason why the prices in the vet's office for treatment for the ear infection are more expensive is because those treatments contain the strong medication needed to treat NJ's ear infection. OTC treatments by law cannot contain these medications because they require a prescription from a vet to treat. While I know it seems expensive, it's best to only treat him with medication from the vet. It is the safest thing to do, and will give the best results. I hope this helps and NJ feels better soon!

Yes, it is ok to use it to disinfect and prevent possible infections. I would recommend to use it twice daily for the next 3 days and if you do not notice any improvement, to take him to your local veterinarian as oral antibiotics may be needed. Make sure the solution does not get in contact with eyes.

It is never recommended to medicate a pet without the advice of your veterinarian. A physical exam is strongly recommended to confirm infection so the appropriate antibiotic can be used. Inappropriate antibiotic use can lead to resistant bacteria and may complicate any underlying conditions. If you choose to use this medication, chloramphenicol can cause serious blood abnormalities, thus should be handled with caution.

Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! Unfortunately no. :( Tobramycin is an antibiotic eye drop. Anything that contains an antibiotic requires a prescription. Also when it comes to eyes we have to very careful with what we prescribe, making sure it is safe for the eye and the condition being treated. If the kittens are having eye issues it’s best to have them seen to obtain a prescription. Good luck!

Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! I only recommend erythromycin or terramycin be used in a cats eye. I recommend, if Riley is having an issue with her eyes, that you see a Veterinarian before putting anything in them. You don't want to do more harm than good. Cats are very sensitive and can react to many eye medications and can react to them all! I hope this helps and I wish you the best!
