Ciprocort Suspension 0.3%+1% is a combination otic suspension containing Ciprofloxacin (0.3%), a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic, and Hydrocortisone Acetate (1%), a corticosteroid. This unique formulation is designed to treat ear infections that involve bacterial growth accompanied by inflammation or irritation.

Ciprofloxacin targets and inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase, effectively stopping the replication of a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria commonly responsible for ear infections. Hydrocortisone Acetate works by reducing inflammation, swelling, and itching, providing symptomatic relief and promoting faster recovery.

Ciprocort Suspension is intended for topical application in the ear, allowing the active ingredients to act directly at the site of infection, maximizing effectiveness while minimizing systemic exposure.
