Liều dùng & Cách dùng

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION SHAKE WELL IMMEDIATELY BEFORE USING. For children (age 1 year and older) and adults, 3 drops of the suspension should be instilled into the affected ear twice daily for seven days.

Repeat, if necessary, for the opposite ear. Discard unused portion after therapy is completed.
