First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This study tested two different ear drops—boric acid and a 10% povidone-iodine solution—to see which works better for treating fungal ear infections (otomycosis). Sixty adults with the infection were treated and their response was measured by ear exams and lab tests. The goal was to find a simple, effective topical treatment without the need for long-term medication.
