This is the kind of stuff that goes unnoticed in the veterinary compounding world--unless people like this report it and complain about the lack of warnings with compounded animal preparations

The Vet put BNT in my 12 year old labs ears. Only had infection


Resolved Question:

The Vet put BNT in my 12 year old labs ears. Only had infection in one ear, but he treated BOTH! did not know why my dog was acting so strange after receiving this treatment. It took until the next morning to realize she was completely deaf. She was scared to death she could not hear anything. I called the vet and he said thats unheard of. after 3 days I took my dog back to the vet and had her ears flushed with saline, and used long qtips to get the Goop out of the ears. she could not hear that night, but the next day she regained about half of her hearing. Today it seems that she still has about half of her hearing. I would not recommend BNT TO ANYONE!!! THERE NO MSDS SHEET AVAILABLE! It comes from a compounding place in Houston. There's no Warnings listed on their site, or given with the treatment! My DOG Would Have Been Totally DEAF Im sure, had I not gotten it out.

That's exactly what my vet said, but in MY experience, and MANY other people's experience, it sounds like dogs ARE LOSING HEARING from use of this product. Are you reading the questions frantic dog owners are posting on the Internet regarding this product? My vet said that it is most likely a reaction to one or more of the ingredients in BNT. Why aren't pet owners then warned about this product?? I Did try to contact BCP pharmacy, and have not received a return call or email. There is no info on their website about this BNT otic ointment, or warnings or anything!
