Overview
['This is a drop-format ear treatment built around 0.2 percent MicroSilver BG combined with 1 percent hydrocortisone, priced at $29.99. Vetnique markets it toward the classic signs of ear trouble, yeasty odor, discharge, redness, and swelling, rather than as a plain maintenance cleaner.', 'Directions call for cleaning the ear first, shaking the bottle well, then applying liberally to the ear canal and massaging the base of the ear, daily for 7 to 10 days or as directed by a vet. Vetnique also tells owners to stop and check with a vet if the condition persists or worsens, which lines up with how a hydrocortisone-based product should be used.', 'With 3,616 reviews at a 4.5 star average and an estimated 7,000 bought in the past month, this is a heavily used product in the ear treatment space, backed by a 90 day manufacturer warranty.']

Performance notes
The label's own instructions to discontinue and consult a vet if symptoms persist or worsen is a good sign that this is meant as a short, defined course of treatment rather than an everyday cleaner. The combination of MicroSilver BG and hydrocortisone targets both the yeasty smell and discharge side of ear trouble along with the itch and inflammation side.
What buyers say
With 3,616 reviews at a 4.5 star average and roughly 7,000 bought in the past month, this is one of the more actively purchased medicated ear drops in the lineup, suggesting a steady stream of owners dealing with recurring ear issues.
The label directs daily application for 7 to 10 days or as directed by your veterinarian. If the condition persists or worsens during that window, the manufacturer recommends discontinuing use and consulting a vet.
Does this treat ear infections on its own?
This is formulated to support ears showing yeasty odor, discharge, redness, or swelling, but it's not veterinary advice or a diagnosis. If you suspect a true infection, a vet visit is the safest first step.
Do I need to clean my dog's ear before applying this?
Yes, the directions specify cleaning the ear first, then shaking the bottle well and applying liberally to the ear canal with a gentle massage at the base of the ear.
