A member asked:
Morning. for a 5 month old baby with an ear infection, is there any otc medication/ ear drops i can get?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wouldn't help: There are no drops that help an infants ear infection. Acetaminophen can sometimes help with discomfort. A true infection would require confirmation by exam and possibly antibiotics if bacterial.
