Abstract: | Therapy for diseases of the ear canal is, in most respects, similar to therapy for other diseases of dogs and cats. As a target for drug therapy, however, the unique anatomy of the external ear canal presents differences that are both advantageous and disadvantageous. This article will describe principles of therapy and pharmacologic properties from the perspective of topical therapy directed at the surface of the ear canal, the epidermis, and the dermis. |
