What kind,of medicines can i take for an ear infection?

Depends: How did you know you have an ear infection? If a doctor had seen you and made the diagnosis, you should follow his/her advice. If you have pain but have not seen the doctor yet, you don't know if it is a middle ear infection caused by bacteria or viruses, or an external ear infection. The treatment is different for each of those conditions. You need to see a doctor if you have not yet.

Antibiotics: Antibiotics are first line of treatment for acute otitis media. There are other milder ear infections which do not require antibiotics. Often in children we prescribe " watchful waiting" which is a term we use to recommend parents to wait a couple of days and let the ear heal itself. There are symptomatic treatments like motrin for pain and numbing ear drops which also are helpful. Best of Luck
