Before each administration it is suggested to clear the ear of debris, wax, and buildup using a saline cleanser. Hold the ear open, apply a few drops into the dog's ear, and gently massage the area below the ear to work the solution into the ear canal. Allow your dog to shake to remove any excess medication.
