Antiinfectives, combinations (ATC code S02AA30) refer to ear preparations containing combinations of antibiotics for the treatment of infections of the ear, such as otitis externa or otitis media. These combinations may include antibiotics like neomycin, polymyxin B, or bacitracin, often used together for broader antimicrobial spectrum. Most of these combinations are topical and used primarily for local effect, and are approved for this indication.
