Otofa is a drug with antibacterial action.
Pharmacological action Otofa
The drug Otofa belongs to the group of rifamycin antibiotics and is used in otorhinolaryngology.
The active substance of the Otofa drug, rifamycin sodium, inhibits the growth of streptococci, gonococci, staphylococci, meningococci, Koch's sticks, Escherichia coli, Proteus.
Release form
Otofa is released in the form of ear drops.
An analogue of Otofa - antibacterial drops Rifogal with the same active substance.
Indications for use
Drops are prescribed for the treatment of otitis externa, chronic or acute otitis media, after operations on the middle ear.
There is experience of use and good reviews about Otofa from patients with a damaged tympanic membrane.
Otof's instruction: method of application
Otofa antibiotic treatment lasts no more than a week - 5-6 days on average.
Adult patients are prescribed to bury drops in the ears three times a day, 5 drops at a time. Children can be instilled into their ears for 3 drops three times a day.
In addition, both children and adults can not bury drops, but pour them into the ear 2 times a day and leave the medicine in the ear canal for 2-3 minutes.
The antibacterial agent Otofa is also successfully used for washing the tympanic cavity, which is carried out using an attic cannula for serious diseases of the ear canal, for example, with purulent otitis media.
Side effects
Otofa and Otofa analog can cause irritation and redness of the skin inside the ear, and other allergic reactions associated with rifamycin intolerance can also occur.
After using the drops, the eardrum may turn pink, but this is only visible during an otoscopy (examination of the ear canal).
An overdose of drops is unlikely, since when applied topically, their active substance is poorly absorbed into the bloodstream, and therefore does not have a systemic effect.
Contraindications to the use of Otof
Otofa's instructions indicate that drops are not prescribed for pregnant, lactating women, since the safety of using the drug in these conditions has not been proven.
Also, you can not use drops for hypersensitivity to rifamycin.
There are no negative reviews about Otofa, which, when combined with other drugs, would cause a complication of the disease or a deterioration in the patient's well-being.
The active substance of the drug tends to stain tissue, therefore, when instilling drops, make sure that they do not get on clothes.
