Posted on Thu, 4 Jun 2015
Question: Thank you I just received your answer which was very helpful about the coproduction/polydexa. I'll go back to the doctor today and let him know of my reaction. Is there anyway to get the polydexa drops if he won't prescribe them? I'll ask and hope he will.

Brief Answer:
I think you have to have a prescription

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the followup.
I think you would need a prescription for the polydexa from your doctor. He will hopefully be willing to give you a prescription for the polydexa or another ear treatment since you are having a bad reaction to the ciprodex. There are many treatments available for external ear infections but it definitely sounds like you need to avoid the ciprodex.
I hope you are feeling better soon,
Regards,
Dr. Robinson
