I had ear pain so prescribed otek ac neo ear drops. I had a opened bottle from mid-june 2020, which I have used for 2 days (november 26 and 27, 2020). Later I realized we should not use opened chloramphenicol ear drops 4 weeks after opening. Will it cause any side effects. I have bought a new ear drop. Please advise as soon as possible.

If there is ear discharge too, first make your canal dry, so make sure no water enters your ear during bathing.

Dear lybrate-user, ear pain can be due to bacterial infection fungal disease or just wax. You have to give a history of whether there is ear discharge if present its nature. Eventualy you must undergo an otoscopic (like stethescope) examination of the ear for which you should consult a good ent specialist at the earliest. Yours sincerely.
