HOW TO USE QRP EAR SUSPENSION:
QRP EAR SUSPENSION: For best effects, QRP EAR SUSPENSION must be used as directed. Continue using it for the full time prescribed. Stopping QRP EAR SUSPENSION too soon may not clear the infection and could possibly result in a reinfection. Do not use QRP EAR SUSPENSION more often or continue to use it for longer than directed. Apply ear drops to the affected ear(s) as follows: Wash hands first. To avoid contamination, be careful not to touch the dropper tip or let it touch your ear. If the medication has been refrigerated, hold the bottle in your hand for a few minutes to warm it. Shake the container well for 10 seconds before using. Lie on your side or tilt the affected ear up. Place dropper directly over the ear and administer the prescribed number of drops. To help the drops roll into the ear, in adults, hold the earlobe up and back and in children, hold the earlobe down and back. Keep the head tilted for about two minutes or insert a soft cotton plug if directed to do so. Do not rinse the dropper.
