    6. If multiple drops are prescribed, wait three to five minutes between each drop.

    7. Avoid touching the bottle tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination.

    2. Gently pull the earlobe upward and away from the neck.

    3. Instill the prescribed number of drops into the ear canal.

    4. Allow the drops to flow down the ear canal and gently massage the area around the ear opening to aid distribution.

    5. Keep the head tilted for a few minutes to ensure the medication reaches deep into the ear canal.
