Every dog parent knows that head-shaking, ear-scratching moment and it usually means something's wrong inside your dog's ear canal. Supertails' dog ear drops collection covers every stage of ear care: antibacterial and antifungal drops for ear infections, gentle formulas for itchy ears, fast-acting options for a dog in visible ear pain, and everyday drops that double as light ear cleaning support between vet visits.

This range suits every breed and life stage - floppy-eared dogs like Cocker Spaniels and Beagles that trap moisture easily, puppies getting their first ear check, and senior dogs prone to recurring infections.

Scroll down to shop by problem, compare bestsellers, and get vet-backed guidance on choosing the right drop for your dog.
Types of Dog Ear Drops - Shop the Right Formula for Your Dog's Ear Problem
Dog ear drops are made for different needs, including routine cleaning, wax buildup, itching, odour, and ear infections. Choosing the right formula based on your dog's symptoms can help support cleaner, healthier ears and prevent discomfort from getting worse.
Antibacterial & Antifungal Combo Drops - For Ear Infections
Most dog ear drops for infection combine an antibiotic with an antifungal, since canine ear infections are usually caused by bacteria and yeast together, not one or the other. Formulas like Veko Auriko (enrofloxacin + sulphadiazine) and Intas Pomisol target both in one application. These are the go-to pick when you've spotted redness, odour, or discharge, and they're the closest OTC equivalent to what a vet would prescribe for a first-time infection.
Antifungal Drops - For Yeast Infections
If your dog's ears smell yeasty and look dark or waxy rather than red and swollen, you're likely dealing with a fungal issue rather than bacterial. Dog ear drops for yeast infection should carry a dedicated antifungal like clotrimazole or miconazole, sometimes paired with a mild steroid to calm the itching that comes with it. Veko Otikoo and similar ofloxacin-based drops work well here, especially in humid Indian climates where yeast overgrowth is common in breeds with hairy or folded ears.
Itch-Relief & Anti-Inflammatory Drops
For a dog constantly pawing at its ear or rubbing its head on the carpet, dog ear drops for itching with a mild corticosteroid bring down inflammation fast, often within a day or two. These are also the right call for ear drops for a dog shaking its head when there's no visible infection - sometimes it's just irritation from dust, allergens, or a recent bath. Beaphar Calm and Scientific Remedies Calm are gentle, low-cost options for this.
Ear Cleaning Drops & Solutions
Some ear drops double as a light rinse to loosen wax and debris before medicated treatment goes in - useful if you're searching for dog ear drops for cleaning rather than infection treatment. For routine, infection-free maintenance cleaning, though, a dedicated ear cleanser does the job better; browse our full Ear Cleaners for Dogs range for that.
Prescription vs. Over-the-Counter Ear Drops
Not every ear drop needs a vet's chit. Milder antifungal and itch-relief formulas are sold as dog ear drops over the counter, while stronger antibiotic-steroid combinations, like Virbac's Easotic, are prescription-only because of their strength and the risk of misuse on a damaged eardrum. Check the product page before ordering - Supertails clearly marks which drops need a prescription upload at checkout.
Trusted Brand Picks - Pomisol & Other Vet-Recommended Names
Pomisol ear drops by Intas are one of India's most searched and most repeat-purchased ear drops on Supertails, thanks to their broad-spectrum formula and low price point. Alongside Pomisol, vets across India commonly recommend Veko, Virbac, and Vivaldis lines - all stocked here in genuine, sealed packaging.
Top-Selling Ear Drops For Ear Infection in Dogs On Supertails - Prices & Quick Picks
Prices here span ₹75 to ₹750, so there's a genuine option whether you need a quick top-up or a vet-recommended prescription formula. Subscribe to any of these and save on repeat orders - useful for dogs prone to recurring infections. Orders above the free delivery threshold ship at no extra cost, and combo packs pairing an ear drop with a cleanser (like the Virbac Epiotic + Easotic combo) work out cheaper than buying separately.
How to Choose the Right Ear Drops for Your Dog?
By Symptom - Infection, Yeast, Itching, or Pain?
Start with what you're actually seeing. Redness, swelling, and a foul smell point to bacterial infection; a musty, yeasty smell with dark discharge suggests fungal overgrowth; constant scratching with no odour is usually simple irritation. Matching the drop to the symptom, rather than grabbing the first bottle you see, is how you get relief within days instead of weeks.
By Active Ingredient - Antibiotic, Antifungal, or Steroid
Read the label before you buy. Antibiotics like enrofloxacin or gentamicin tackle bacteria; antifungals like clotrimazole or miconazole handle yeast; corticosteroids reduce swelling and itching. Many bestsellers combine two or three of these, which is usually the safer bet unless your vet has diagnosed a single, specific cause.
By Prescription Requirement - When You Need a Vet's Chit
Stronger antibiotic-steroid combinations are prescription-only in India, and for good reason - used on a ruptured eardrum, they can cause permanent hearing damage. If your dog's ear infection is recurring, severe, or hasn't improved in 3--4 days on an OTC drop, that's your signal to get a vet exam rather than escalate the dose yourself.
How to Apply Ear Drops Safely at Home
Warm the bottle slightly in your palm, hold the ear flap up, and squeeze the drops in without letting the tip touch the ear. Massage the base of the ear gently for 20--30 seconds to work the liquid in, then let your dog shake its head before wiping away any excess with a cotton ball. Never insert cotton swabs deep into the canal.
When Ear Drops Aren't Enough - Signs You Need a Vet Visit
If your dog is in visible pain, tilting its head persistently, has a ruptured or unclear eardrum, or the infection keeps returning every few weeks, ear drops alone won't fix the underlying issue. Recurring infections are often linked to allergies or an anatomical predisposition that needs a proper diagnosis, not repeated over-the-counter treatment.

FAQS
What is the difference between antibacterial and antifungal ear drops for dogs?
Antibacterial drops treat infections caused by bacteria - usually marked by redness, swelling, and odour. Antifungal drops target yeast overgrowth, which looks darker, waxier, and smells musty. Many dogs have both at once, which is why combination drops like Pomisol or Auriko are the most commonly prescribed starting point before a vet narrows down the exact cause.
What are good ear drops for ear pain in dogs?
Look for a combination formula with an anti-inflammatory or mild steroid alongside the antibiotic or antifungal - this addresses both the infection and the pain it causes. Virbac Easotic and Vivaldis Otisoothe are commonly recommended for dogs showing visible discomfort, though a prescription drop works faster if the pain is severe.
Best dog ear drops for yeast infection in India?
Ofloxacin-based drops like Veko Otikoo, or clotrimazole-based formulas, are widely used across Indian vet clinics for yeast-driven ear issues, especially in humid regions where fungal overgrowth is common. Confirm with your vet if the infection keeps recurring, since persistent yeast infections can point to an underlying allergy.
Dog ear drops over the counter - do I need a prescription?
Milder antifungal and anti-itch drops are available without a prescription on Supertails. Stronger antibiotic-steroid combinations like Easotic require a prescription upload at checkout, since misuse on a damaged eardrum can cause lasting harm.
How can I treat my dog's ear infection at home without going to the vet?
For a mild, early-stage infection, a broad-spectrum OTC ear drop applied twice daily for 5--7 days often clears things up. That said, home treatment only works if you're confident it's a routine infection - persistent smell, visible pain, or no improvement within a few days means it's time to stop self-treating and get a vet exam.
My dog keeps shaking his head even after using ear drops - what should I do?
Head shaking that continues past a few days of treatment usually means the drop isn't matched to the actual cause, the infection is deeper than expected, or there's an underlying issue like an ear mite or foreign object. Don't just switch to a stronger drop on your own - get it checked so you're treating the right problem.
Can I use human ear drops on my dog?
No. Human ear drops often contain ingredients like alcohol, lidocaine, or fragrance that are unsafe for a dog's sensitive ear canal, and they're not formulated for the bacteria or yeast strains common in canine ear infections. Always use a product made specifically for dogs.
Is Pomisol safe for daily use on Indian dog breeds?
Pomisol is formulated as a broad-spectrum treatment and is widely used across Indian breeds and climates, but "daily use" should still follow the course length your vet or the product label recommends - typically 5--7 days - rather than ongoing indefinite use. Stopping and restarting a course without reason can contribute to resistance.
