Vosol

Vosol is an antiseptic used to treat otitis externa, a problem of the ear canal. The active ingredient in this antiseptic is acetic acid.

Acetic acid is anti-bacterial and anti-fungal; propylene glycol is hydrophilic and provides a low surface tension; benzethonium chloride is a surface active agent that promotes contact of the solution with tissues.
