Do you have any info on ear drops for dogs that has made them go deaf or do you have info on otomax?
Otomax can cause temporary deafness in dogs, but only in the ear it was placed in, unless it was used in both ears. It is really really super rare though. Usually the deafness clears up in about 6 weeks, and the medication should be switched, maybe to Surolan. The other possibility is that the infection the dog was put on the otomax for did unforseen damage to the ear that just happened to show up when you started treating it.

Conductive deafness is when the sound waves are prevented from reaching the inner ear. It can be because of wax in the outer canal, fluid inside it, or the tiny bones in the ear have seized up.

Most cases of deafness fall into the category of conductive and perceptive deafness, though other cases of deafness are as simple as the result of old age.
