Waxsol Ear Drops is a medication designed to soften and help remove excessive ear wax. It comes in the form of ear drops and contains the active ingredient docusate sodium. This medication is easy to use and provides an effective solution for those suffering from ear wax build-up.
Waxsol Ear Drops are primarily used to treat excessive ear wax. Excessive ear wax can cause discomfort, hearing loss, and even infections if not treated properly. By softening the ear wax, Waxsol Ear Drops make it easier to remove, thus alleviating these symptoms. This medication is not typically used for other conditions.
Waxsol Ear Drops work by using the active ingredient docusate sodium, which acts as a surfactant. This means it helps to break down and soften the ear wax, making it easier to remove. When you apply the drops, the docusate sodium penetrates the ear wax and reduces its thickness and stickiness. This process allows the ear wax to move out of the ear more easily, either naturally or with gentle cleaning.
Waxsol Ear Drops are suitable for adults and children over the age of 12 who suffer from excessive ear wax. However, certain people should avoid using this medication. Do not use Waxsol Ear Drops if you have a perforated eardrum or an ear infection. Additionally, if you experience any pain or discomfort while using the drops, consult your doctor immediately.
Use Waxsol Ear Drops once a day, preferably in the evening before bedtime. This allows the drops to work overnight, softening the ear wax for easier removal the next day.
Typically, you should use Waxsol Ear Drops for two nights. If you do not notice an improvement, consult your doctor for further advice.
Like all medications, Waxsol Ear Drops can cause side effects. Below are the common, uncommon, and serious side effects you may experience.
