Product Description
Nootie Medicated Ear Finger Wipes provide a convenient, mess-free way to clean your pet's ears while delivering real medicated treatment directly to the ear canal. Unlike standard ear wipes that only clean, these wipes contain two veterinarian-trusted active pharmaceutical ingredients — Chlorhexidine Gluconate 0.2% and Ketoconazole 0.2% — to actively treat and prevent the topical infections most commonly responsible for ear discomfort in dogs and cats.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate is a broad-spectrum antiseptic with well-established antibacterial efficacy used widely in veterinary and human medicine. It disrupts the cell membranes of bacteria, making it effective against the gram-positive and gram-negative organisms commonly implicated in otitis externa (outer ear infections) in pets. Ketoconazole is an antifungal azole compound that inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol — a critical component of fungal cell membranes — making it highly effective against Malassezia pachydermatis, the yeast species most commonly responsible for yeast overgrowth in pet ears. Together, these two actives address both the bacterial and fungal components that are frequently the cause of recurrent ear issues, itching, odor, and inflammation.
The soft finger-wrap design makes application intuitive and controlled: simply slip the wipe over your index finger, gently wipe the visible base of the ear canal and inner ear flap, and discard. No squirting, no flushing, no mess. Safe for regular daily maintenance or use as directed by your veterinarian. Each wipe is single-use for sanitary application. Suitable for both dogs and cats. Made in the USA.
