"This is a parent's best friend at 4 am with a screaming child who has an ear infection and antibiotics haven't kicked in yet. You will realize soon that ear medicine is like liquid gold. I swear that's how valuable those are in a family with kids and frequent ear infections."

Antipyrine / benzocaine otic "It numbs the pain. It makes my ear feel heavier, but at least the throbbing subsides. I always feel drowsy after the dosage. With an ear infection, sleeping is good!"

Antipyrine / benzocaine otic "These drops helped me so much. I was in severe pain for 8 days before I finally found a doctor who would prescribe them to me. I went to the ER 5 days in a row before I got any relief."

"I was 2 days into a horrible outer ear infection (swimmer's ear). Tylenol and ibuprofen did nothing for pain. My friend said to check with the doctor about getting numbing drops. It fills the ear and feels funny since the ear feels full anyhow, but does help with the knife-in-the-ear feeling, pain, and throbbing."
