Otovowen can be diluted in water, tea or juice for ease of use, especially in children! Use Otovowen for both acute and chronic symptoms of earache. Continue treatment until all symptoms have subsided. Do not use it for more than 8 weeks.

In most cases, antibiotics are not necessary for the treatment of middle ear infections and earache. Natural remedies are often sufficient. Within naturopathy, there are several medicinal plants that can relieve inflammation of the nasal and throat mucosa and earache.

The seven medicinal plants in Otovowen have a long tradition in naturopathy. Otovowen combines four herbal tinctures and symptom-related potencies in an effective combination for middle ear infections and earaches.

*Always refer to a healthcare practitioner for children under 2 years of age with ear infections!

Fewer antibiotic use with the “Watch- and- Wait” approach! 

The evidence-based “watch-and-wait” strategy has proven successful in children with mild and uncomplicated symptoms of Otitis media. In careful monitoring of the progression of the disease, antibiotic treatment is primarily dispensed to weigh up the benefits and risks. ³

Most acute otitis media is caused by viral infections rather than bacterial. Utilize the “watch-and-wait” approach with Otovowen to help relieve symptoms associated with otitis media such as ear pain, throbbing pain, inflammation and swelling.
