Waxsol Ear Drops for Wax Removal 10ml

Description:

Waxsol is a clear colourless liquid and is used to help remove ear wax in adults, and the elderly. Use in children under 12 years only on medical advice. The drops help to clear your ear canal if it is blocked with wax by softening it and breaking it up. Waxsol contains a mild emulsifier which penetrates and helps disperse ear wax.

An ear blockage is often caused by a build-up of ear wax (cerumen) in the ear canal. While ear wax is a naturally occurring substance, sometimes it can harden making it difficult to remove from the ear. A safe way to unblock your ears from excess ear wax build-up is to use ear drops, such as waxsol.

Ingredients:

Docusate Sodium 0.5% w/v in a water miscible base, containing glycerine and water. Also contains hydroxybenzoate esters 1.7 mg/ml and phenoxyethanol 4.3 mg/ml as preservatives.

Usage Directions:

Make sure that your symptoms are due to an earwax build-up. If you are unsure, speak to your healthcare professional.

- Fill the dropper from the bottle.

-Tilt your head to one side.

-Gently drip Waxsol into your blocked ear until it is full.

-Place a cotton wool plug in the ear. The best time to do this is before you go to bed.

-Remove the plug the next morning

-Repeat the procedure the second night.

Two nightly applications of Waxsol should sufficiently loosen the hardened ear wax, making it easier to come out.

Storage:

Store the bottle below 25°C. Do not use WAXSOL after the expiry date which is printed or embossed on the carton and label.

Warnings:

Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Keep out of reach of children.

Do not use Waxsol if:

• the ear drum is perforated and the ear is inflamed.
• you have eczema or seborrhoeic dermatitis on the outer ear
• you have allergies related to any ingredients in Waxsol

If you are continuing to experience a blockage, feel pain or notice a discharge coming from the ear canal, it is recommended that you contact your doctor. Never place anything, such as a cotton tip or ear pick into the ear canal. Often these tools can push the blockage further into the ear, potentially causing temporary or permanent hearing loss.
