Reviews

Valeria, 22 years old
I often drive with an open window, apparently because of this, my left ear began to hurt, a feeling of congestion appeared and some discharge from it with an unpleasant odor. I went to the doctor, there was purulent otitis media of the external ear. They wrote out drops of Cipromed. On the third day of application, the hearing returned to normal, the congestion disappeared, there was no discharge, and I stopped dripping, although I had to apply it for 7 days. But after a week, the symptoms returned, I had to return to the drops again, but it was already dripping for a week, and for a year now, otitis media has not appeared.
