Genta/Momet/Clotrim Ear Oint Adverse Event Insights
The FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine database currently holds 2,462 adverse event reports referencing Genta/Momet/Clotrim Ear Oint, including 69 reports in which the animal died — a 280.0% case-fatality figure among reported events only, not a population-level mortality rate. Active ingredient on file: Genta/Momet/Clotrim Ear Oint. Reported administration routes include Auricular (Otic), Topical, Unknown, Oral. These numbers reflect voluntary submissions from pet owners, veterinarians, and manufacturers and therefore under-represent mild events and over-represent severe ones — a pattern the FDA has documented repeatedly for pharmacovigilance datasets.
The species most frequently named in Genta/Momet/Clotrim Ear Oint reports are Dog (2,177 reports), Unknown (241 reports), Cat (38 reports), with Dog accounting for the largest share. Within those species, Crossbred Canine/dog (438), Unknown (249), Retriever - Labrador (184) appear most often — though breed popularity and ownership density shape these counts as much as any drug-specific sensitivity. This distribution matters because the same active ingredient can behave very differently across body sizes, ages, and species physiology.
The most commonly reported clinical signs associated with Genta/Momet/Clotrim Ear Oint are Deafness (1,318), Drug administration duration too long (371), Partial deafness (342), Incorrect dose administered NOS (148). Of the 2,222 reports with a coded outcome, Recovered with Sequela is the leading category at 55.1%. Because FDA adverse event data describes correlation rather than causation, these figures are best used to frame informed questions with a veterinarian and to compare reporting patterns across related products — not as a standalone safety verdict on Genta/Momet/Clotrim Ear Oint.
