Benefits of Clearwax Ear Drop
In Treatment of Softening of earwax
Clearwax Ear Drop is a liquid solution which helps to soften, disperse and sometimes dissolve ear wax. Although ear wax drops can be an effective, self-sufficient treatment for ear wax, they are more often used before some other form of treatment for ear wax such as ear syringing or ear irrigation. This medicine is absorbed by ear wax, aiding in thinning and softening it in the process. It also lubricates the inner layers of the skin lining the ear canal, enabling its movement towards the entrance of the ear canal. This helps in getting rid of the earwax without pain and discomfort.
How to use Clearwax Ear Drop
This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Hold the dropper close to the ear without touching it. Gently squeeze the dropper and place the medicine inside ear.
How Clearwax Ear Drop works
Clearwax Ear Drop is a combination of four medicines: Benzocaine, Chlorbutol, Paradichlorobenzene and Turpentine Oil. Benzocaine is a local anesthetic. It works by blocking pain signals from the nerves to brain which decreases sensation of pain. Chlorbutol is a preservative. Paradichlorobenzene is an ear wax softener which dissolves the ear wax while exerting antibacterial and antifungal actions. Turpentine Oil is a lubricant.
