"Dear Zymox,
I usually don't waste my valuable time to write a company regarding a product, however, in this case I must. I have a puppy mill Old English Sheepdog that I adopted through a shelter. Every month for two years I have had to take her to the vet, because she had another ear infection. Actually - I'm assuming that her ear infection never actually went away for two years, because I could not touch her ear without muzzling her.
I found your product - Zymox Otic Enzymatic Solution and I read all these incredible stories of how great this product was and that it treats bacterial, fungal and yeast infections. My vet never told me what kind of infection that she had. I decided to try the product, but to be honest, I wasn't expecting a miracle.
Although she usually only had the infection in the left ear, I decided that I was going to treat both ears. The first day I muzzled her and she was soooo mad like always whenever I touched her ears. The second day, instead of running and growling at me when she saw the bottle she came to me. I muzzled her and applied the drops. The third day, her ears looked almost healed.
I was amazed that her ears cleared up in three days, but I continued to use the product for 14 days straight. Marnie as not had any products in four (4) months since I used Zymox.
Thank you sooooo much for such a wonderful product! I can honestly say that I can't think of any other product, for animals, people, or household that I value as much as this product. I have told everyone that I know - especially floppy ear dog owners. And I have written down Zymox in so many places, because I want to make sure that I never forget the name of your product."

"I just wanted to touch base on the Otic solution that we tried on or our Golden Retreiver Buddy who has cronic ear problems. Buddy is 10 yrs old and has had problems all his live. My vet told me that I should consider having his ear canals removed to stop the suffering. I refuse to do this. I have been using this product for 7 days now and have seen a huge improvement in Buddy's ears. The redness is gone and a nice pink tone is now seen. Most of the swelling has gone down but still some is present. Should I continue for another 3-7 days. Buddy is quite impressed himself. He dosen't fight me near as much when I put this product in his ears. He knows it's helping. Also he's not scratching or rubbing as much. Thank you so much!"

"My wife and I have been lucky to a rottweiler named Munster vom Murphmeister, a 171 pound old german cart puller whom has had the worst ear problems since being a puppy. We had also had his father who's no longer with us who also suffered ear problems although not as acute as Munster. Over the last 7 years we had tried everything from antibiotics to home concoctions, various ear washes, creams and meds only to listen to Munster shake his head endlessly and constantly trying to clean his on ear by licking his paw and rubbing his ear only to cause it to bleed. It seemed the surgery on his ear canal was all that was left, until I got on the web and found your product. The Zynox with cortisone within 3 days has him sleeping through the night and he has all but stopped shaking his head except for the three or four times a day which are normal. This stuff is amazing and best of all it's extremely easy to use. Thank you from me and Munster, thank you."

"I was introduced to the Zymox line of products at the Central Veterinary Conference in Kansas City in August, 2006.

Prior to attending CVC, I had been treating one particular patient for chronic otitis since May, 2006 with no real success. We were discussing performing a lateral ear resection, but a culture and sensitivity performed in mid-August revealed antibiotic-resistant pseudomonas. We returned from the CVC, and I started her on a sample of Zymox Otic that I had brought back. The ear cleared up a little, but I was still skeptical. I attempted to switch her back to the other products we had been using, and the infection was even worse at recheck. I then put her back on Zymox and continued it for several weeks, rechecking her weekly. The ear, which no other antibiotic or ear product would effectively treat, healed completely with Zymox. The owner currently uses Zymox weekly as a preventative and is very happy to have avoided surgery.

At our practice, Zymox is now the first medication I dispense for chronic otitis, because it works. We have also started using several of the other Zymox products, including the shampoo and conditioner. I am very satisfied and happy with the Zymox line of products."

"We can't thank you enough for inventing and formulating the Zymox Otic Enzymatic lotion. We had just purchased our lovely 2 year old Weimaraner. Never knowing how bad her ears were with excessive wax and yeast infection, etc. She hated the many harsh prescription creams from the vets. They did little to help her & only made the ears worse! Her violent & constant head-shakes (and ears scratched open) made us feel like new hopeless owners. Out of desperation we found you website & some other vets on the internet gave a thumbs for your product. Isabella's ears are clean & healthy now. She loves life, playing & not worrying about constantly digging her ears. Best of all, Excessive wax is gone after a short time & no more daily ear cleanings are necessary. Thanks again!"

"I mistakenly kept my first dozen of Zymox on my pharmacy shelf for a long time. I chose to use Zymox on an ear that was not responsive to any antibiotic on my culture and sensitivity over a 4 week period of time. Zymox worked amazingly on this ear and cleaned up the infection in less than 2 weeks. Zymox is now my first choice for both yeast and bacterial infections."
Patrick H. Hafner DVM, Dunedin, FL
"I would like to say THANK YOU so very much for making Zymox Otic. I found your site on the web after my veterinarian and myself had exhausted every possible cure for my dogs ongoing ear infection of over a year and a half. Her ears had gotten so bad that they were completely swollen and she could hardly hear and was in pain constantly. Dr. Bilbrey had tried everything from ear meds to even eye meds in her ears, with no luck. Finally I decided to go on the web and found your site. After reading up on your product, I went directly to my vet the next day and she immediately ordered a bottle for my Sadie. This product has been a miracle for her. She now has no swelling and the green pus that had invaded her ears is completely gone. Once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for inventing such a wonderful product. (I tell everyone I can about your amazing solution)."

"I had to tell you how your products have helped to end my dog's suffering. He's eleven years old, and has liver disease, and has suffered with yeast infections in his ears and feet for years. I have tried everything, but needed to avoid steroids/hycortisone because of his liver disease. Nothing seemed to help. Finally my vet suggested Zymox. It is like a miracle. I started with the 2 oz. spray bottles, but his bloody, yeasty feet were so bad that I was going through a bottle every day or two. Then I started to supplement with your medicated rinse. It's incredible...my dog actually lifts his feet so I can put it on his feet every night. I only wish I had discovered your product long ago. Even though his feet look good now, I stuill put the Zymox medicated rinse on every night. I do not want him to ever suffer again like he did.
Bless you for discovering a natural product that even a dog with a sick liver can tolerate. If I can be of any assistance in spreading the word, please let me know. Thank you."
Gail Bending, Kimba's Mom
Please Please Please NEVER stop being the distributor of Zymox OTIC...I have gone to 3 veterinarians over the years with one of my English Cocker...The bacterial infection had gotten so our of hand that it was to the point surgery was the next step!...Before making an appointment to take her to MSU I decided to try and see if someone on the European English Cocker Message Board had a suggestion. I was advised if I could get my hands on Zymox Otic that would do the trick, its the most amazing medication. Cocker's ears are clearing up!! This product has saved my dog from undue surgery and the expense on me. Thank you again!!! KUDOS!!!"

"I see several cases of Otitis externa a day in my practice and it is the most common complaint that the owners have. I have used several medications (some homemade) and several approaches to correcting this annoying condition. All had limited success. A Webster sales rep, Steve Gerber, recommended I use this "new product called Zymox. It is not an antibiotic and will not cause bacterial resistance," he says. I tried this product and I have had great success. I have to say 98% of all the Otitis cases respond to the Zymox protocol. Occasionally I have to use it for more that 2 wks, but it does work. I have mixed feelings about this product. The great thing is this medications works extremely well; the bad thing is I have a shelf full of other medications I won't use any longer. Knowing how well Zymox works I won't dispense anything else. It is not fair to the client. The case that convinced me the most was a standard poodle that went to the groomer and came home with an ear infection. The groomer dispensed a medication which made the condition worse. I tried every medication I had with no success. After exhausting my otitis arsenal will no benefit I tried Zymox. I used it last because it just arrived and I wasn't thinking of using it. Keep in mind this ear had progressed to a very painful, reddened, irritated ear that neither the owners or I could touch. The next week, the dog came in and the ear condition was almost completely resolved. The dog allowed me to examine and flush out the ear without pain or discomfort. I have a life long client as a result, and it is due to this great product. This is a true story! Thank you for the great product."

"I stumbled across your web page one day and it sounded too good to be true. I had my vet order the Zymox for ear infections hoping it would help my Petey. Petey has had a chronic ear infection in one ear for 8 years. I have spent a fortune on vet bills and ointments trying to get both of us some relief. A shot in the dark, and I was amazed how fast it worked on her. She no longer has to go thru all the suffering and pain of that ear. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such a miracle drug for my darling Petey. I just called the vet to order Petey the shampoo and rinse hoping it works on her skin allergies. Once I get those products I feel sure the skin problems will go away. I have so much faith in Zymox I can't wait to get the products."
Nancy Cox, Consumer, Mt. Juliet, TN
"I have been using Zymox-E in my dog's ears for over a year. My vet was ready to do surgery to remove my dog's ear canals as a last option. She has suffered terribly from yeast infections and the smell was horrible. After trying this product for several weeks, her ears have been fine since. I now only have to use it once a week. Thank you."
Zymox user
"I got our first sample of Zymox at an AAHA convention. Being a skeptic, I brought the bottle home and tried it on my worst chronic ear case.  (Even though the dog died 2 weeks later of other causes.) We were impressed with how well it worked and we ordered a dozen. We now use Zymox for all yeast and/or inflammatory otitis (2ndry to atopy). Almost all of our chronic otitis cases are using Zymox and have found that the ears are much improved and the pets are more comfortable. Most still use Zymox to maintain the ears through allergy season. We now buy Zymox 4 to 8 dozen at a time (every other month). We are very happy with the effectiveness of this product."
Kendyle M. Smith, DVM, Country View Animal Hospital, Beloit, WI
"Zymox combines all the desirable characteristics of an otic medication for cats and dogs. Its mechanism of action is effective against a broad spectrum of common bacteria and yeast, including antibiotic-resistant strains. The formulation is easy to administer, non-irritating, and safe for patients with a compromised tympanic membrane. Zymox with hydrocortisone offers a well-tolerated anti-inflammatory preparation with fewer adverse effects than longer duration corticosteroids. Our clinical impression of Zymox for resolving acute and chronic bacterial otitis externa is very favorable. Zymox is also useful for treating Malassezia infections, following a 2-week course of therapy. Our clients appreciate the natural ingredients found in this product."
William K. Kruesi, DVM, Cold River Center, North Clarendon, VT
"The products are excellent. I use a large amount of Zymox as a first choice for any ear infection I see. I also use Zylafen for not only reptile skin infections, but also lipfold dermatitis/skinfold dermatitis and interdigital dermatitis in cats and dogs. I recommend these products to all the vets I work with."
Vincent Seccareccia, DVM, Ferguson Animal Hospital, North Providence, RI
"Zymox is my first choice currently in all my otitis externa cases- mild or chronic. Clients love the ease of use! They don't have to worry about "digging" around in the ears to clean them and most of the dogs don't run and hide when they see them (owners) coming with the bottle."
Mary R. Rizzolo, DVM, An Alternate Choice, Cleveland, OH
"Where can I get Zymox Shampoo? I've never had ANYTHING whip Shar-Pei ears into shape like your Zymox, so I have to assume that your shampoo and rinse are good products as well."
Cyndi Skinner, Consumer, Vancouver, WA
"I am writing to thank you for offering Zymox medicated drops in your product line.  We have been struggling with a recurring, chronic ear infection in my toy poodle for approximately six months. We have tried numerous products and modalities but nothing worked as quickly nor sustained the health of his ears like Zymox. The product provided immediate relief to my little poodle's ears and his ears remained clear. We are thrilled. Thank you so much."
Consumer, Brandon, FL
"My own dog, a St. Bernard who is now 8 years old suffered from chronic ear infections.  I never got the results to clear up the infection for a long period of time. I tried Zymox on her and saw results in 2-3 days. I love it. It is so easy to use. I didn't know how this would work for other animals, so I ordered a small quantity and passed it on to a few "trial" patients. They all loved it! I find your product excellent and will continue to use it on my own dog and those willing to try a new product."
Veterinary Doctor, Columbus, MS
"I want to thank you for recommending Zymoz to be used not only on our Labs ears, but as a follow up to the Zymox shampoo and rinse. deCoucy has had what a lab termed as three different kinds of fungus on his skin. This condition has been with him for about a year now. Our vet started deCoucy on the Zymox shampoo and rinse in July. This treatment made all the difference in the world. His coat come back and the scabs went away, except for a few stubborn places. With the Zymox applied to these places, in less that 9 days the problem has gone away. We are happy and we know that our 8 year old Lab is even happier."
Diana Baker, Consumer, El Dorado Springs, MO
"I wanted to write & thank you for Zymox Otic. I have a four year old English Cocker Spaniel, Rudy, that has suffered from frequent ear infections. Until I started treating the infections with Zymox, both the infections & the mainstream treatments were both painful & irritating. Rudy dreaded the harsh ear washes & treatments that were prescribed by two different veterinarians.Now with Zymox, Rudy doesn't mind the non-irritating Zymox. At the first sign of an ear-shake or itch, I treat with Zymox and have been able to completely avoid recurring infections. Zymox has also eliminated the thick discharge that used to accompany each ear infection. Zymox has certainly improved Rudy's quality of life. I have recommended your product line to other dog owners that struggle with ear & skin infections & will continue to do so. Zymox has earned a customer for life. Thank you for a fine product."
