I've been spraying my ear with otomize because of an outer ear infection. I also have a nazal spray for sinus problems. It had to happen: I squirted optomize into my nostril. So far, no ill effects, but they do tell you to contact your GP if you swallow the stuff, and not to put it in the ears of eyes.
Does it matter?

One To Be Taken Twice A Day and just taken my first one today, but told not to take it with milk, in fact no milk two hrs before or two hrs afterwards. Thats hard as like cups of tea or coffee.
Like you I also use a steriod nasal spray, mine is for chronic rhinitis which I have had for years and years. Have you ever had ear infections before, has this now cleared up for you?

I've had ear infections before, years ago , and was given a different spray, something like betnovate. That worked, painful at first though.

Googled, but no comments found. My nose doesn't hurt, so I suppose it doesn't matter. Yes I have hearing loss, but it's attributed to wax; mild tinnitus, but feeling like fluid in the ear as if the hearing aid were still in.
Hearing aids can cause infection. They have to be kept clean, sterilize with steradent (you can gues how ancient I am.) They also cause wax to build up, becasue it has no outlet. After a while, the ear builds up defences against thus .
Never, ever, use baby buds to remove wax. Never put anything in the ear unless you absolutely have to. If your ear itches, leave it!
Hope this helps.
