## My son was taking the Ciprodex eardrops and I was wanting to know if it can cause hives anywhere on the body? He also has been having vomiting and diarrhea. ## ANY medication can cause an allergic reaction that might cause hives. Please contact your doctor to change medications. That is the prudent next step whenever anyone has an allergic reaction to a medication.

I'm getting an ear infection and I still have some drops (Ciprodex) from last infection. They are not expired and have been kept in the back of a drawer at room temperature. Can I still use them? ## Hello, Maggie! How are you? Yes, as long as they aren't expired, though it's always best to see your doctor to confirm that you have an infection. Typical side effects may include dizziness, ear stuffiness, ringing and drainage. Is there anything else I can help with?
