Baytril Otic (Enrofloxacin/Silver Sulfadiazine) Solution

Baytril Otic is a specialised antibacterial and antimycotic emulsion formulated for the topical treatment of otitis externa (ear infections) in dogs. It combines two powerful active ingredients: enrofloxacin, a potent fluoroquinolone antibiotic, and silver sulfadiazine (SSD), a broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent. This dual-action formula is particularly effective against stubborn bacterial infections, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as well as fungal and yeast infections like Malassezia pachydermatis. The soothing emulsion base helps to coat the ear canal, providing targeted delivery of the medication to the site of inflammation and infection.
