Pharmacological group

Otologic drugs, corticosteroids and anti-infectious agents in combination.

Ear canal inflammation is a common problem in small pets (10-20% in dogs and 2-6% in cats) and one of the leading reasons for visiting a veterinarian. Mitex is the perfect combination of three substances that work synergistically to provide powerful protection against otitis externa and localized skin infections. Polymyxin B and miconazole complement each other and effectively potentiate each other in their antimicrobial activity against the most important bacteria and yeast involved in otitis externa: Staphylococcus pseudointermedius, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Malassezia pachydermatis. Prednisolone, a synthetic corticosteroids, has a rapid anti-inflammatory, antiallergic, antiexudative and antiproliferative effect and quickly relieves the symptoms of inflammation without causing systemic side effects.

Mitex has also been shown to be effective against ear mites, thus directing attention to another primary factor (specific to cats). With constant use, the parasites quickly die and the healing process is accelerated.

Indications for use

• Gram-positive bacteria: Staphylococcus spp., Streptococcus spp.
• Gram-negative bacteria: Pseudomonas spp., Escherichia coli.
• Yeasts and fungi: Malassezia pachydermatis, Candida spp., Microsporum spp., Trichophyton spp.
• Treatment of invasions of Otodectes cynotis, when there is a simultaneous infection with pathogens sensitive to miconazole and polymyxin B.
