Indications
Otoseptil Ear Drops is used for:
TYROTHRICIN
It is a locally effective antibiotic effective against gram-positive bacteria. It is sometimes combined with benzocaine 5 mg to provide relief from sore throats. In systemic intake it can lead to severe side effects, therefore, the use is limited to topical application. The most common use for tyrothricin is inflammation of the throat, gastric mucosa, and angina tonsillaris. In order to use tyrothricin, the mucous membrane must be intact. This is to ensure that tyrothricin will not come into contact with the bloodstream, therefore limiting the risk of systemic absorption
NEOMYCIN
Topical uses include treatment for superficial eye infections caused by susceptible bacteria (used in combination with other antiinfectives), treatment of otitis externa caused by susceptible bacteria, treatment or prevention of bacterial infections in skin lesions, and use as a continuous short-term irrigant or rinse to prevent bacteriuria and gram negative rod bacteremia in abacteriuric patients with indwelling catheters. May be used orally to treat hepatic encephalopathy, as a perioperative prophylactic agent, and as an adjunct to fluid and electrolyte replacement in the treatment of diarrhea caused to enteropathogenic e. Coli (epec)

Mechanism of Action
TYROTHRICIN
Tyrothricin inhibits protein biosynthesis of gram-positive organisms, but is completely ineffective against gram-negative
NEOMYCIN
Aminoglycosides like neomycin "irreversibly" bind to specific 30s-subunit proteins and 16s rrna. Specifically neomycin binds to four nucleotides of 16s rrna and a single amino acid of protein s12. This interferes with decoding site in the vicinity of nucleotide 1400 in 16s rrna of 30s subunit. This region interacts with the wobble base in the anticodon of trna. This leads to interference with the initiation complex, misreading of mrna so incorrect amino acids are inserted into the polypeptide leading to nonfunctional or toxic peptides and the breakup of polysomes into nonfunctional monosomes
