hello dr i think i need to give you a little more information. 9 days ago i went to the er at 3am because of pain in my ear. they said i had a middle ear infection and prescribed me augmentin. that didn't work so well so i went to my doctor yesterday morning and she gave me the injection and said that i had a middle and inner ear infection. she called the eardrops into the pharmacy in case the injection didnt work. she also gave me a nasal spray (nasacort) and zyrtec. i am just wondering how long i should wait for this injection to work before i go grab these drops
how long does it take for a methylprednisolone injection to take effect? i got it 30 hours ago for an ear infection. they have an cortisporin ear drop waiting for me at the pharmacy. should i pick it up now or give the infection more time to work?
