Works like a charm!
I ordered this to clear up a case of conjunctivitis that our recently adopted 7-month-old kitten had. My wife applied it to the kitten in the evening, and we started seeing results the next morning. We applied the ointment twice a day, for 10 days. It's been almost 2 weeks since the last application, and our kitten is fine.

It goes in the eye. Many times if you have a difficult patient getting some on is challenging enough but you need it I to help your pet. I hold the eye open with one hand as apply with my other. Again difficult patients sometimes requires 4 hands 😉
