A member asked:
My 9 month old has pink eye and i have a tube of erythromycin ophthalmic ointment, how many times a day, how many days?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2-3 times per day: Try the ointment 2-3 times per day until the redness improves. If not better after 3-4 days, then see a pediatric ophthalmologist.
