  • Moderate to severe ear pain in the affected ear(s), defined as a score of ≥ 5 (on a scale of 0 10) on the NRS 11 as evaluated by the subject at Screening.
  • Generally good health (other than AOM) as determined by evaluation of medical history and physical examination at Screening.

  • Disorders with decreased mucociliary clearance or higher viscosity of the mucous (eg, cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary dyskinesia, Kartagener's syndrome)
  • Clinically relevant blockage of 1 or both nasal passages, as determined by the investigator's medical judgment
  • Permanent hearing loss irrespective of otitis media
  • Subjects with medical conditions that may affect interpretation of the safety or efficacy of study drug as determined by the investigator's medical judgment
  • Subjects with craniofacial abnormalities (eg, cleft palate, Down's Syndrome)
  • Subjects with erythema of the TM without other evidence of otitis media
  • Seborrheic dermatitis involving the affected external ear canal or pinna
  • Use of medications with known vasoconstrictive properties (eg, decongestants [Afrin®, Sudafed®]) currently or within 2 h prior to Screening
