Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop

Using this medicine is not mandatory for every child. Its use may help prevent pain, ringing in the ears, and infection in children who use hearing aids or have a history of excessive earwax. Discussion with your child’s doctor will help determine whether anything should be done for your child.

There is no standard time to prevent or clean earwax buildup. It is a natural process and nothing needs to be done unless excess earwax accumulates. Ask your child’s doctor if there is anything special that you can do to prevent or reduce the accumulation of earwax.

Cotton-tipped swabs can remove some wax but they often simply push the wax deeper into the ear. This may traumatize the ear canal or even worsen earwax buildup. So, it is not advised to use cotton swabs deep into the ear canals.

Removing the earwax may improve your child’s hearing if the hearing issues were due to blockage in the ear canal. However, remember that Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop does not play any role in improving hearing abilities. If your child’s hearing continues to be reduced, make sure to consult an expert.

Ask your child to lie down or sit with the affected ear facing up. Hold the dropper directly over the ear, and place the prescribed number of drops into the ear canal. To help the drops roll into the ear, hold the earlobe down and back. Keep the head tilted for about 2 minutes, or insert a piece of cotton if your doctor directs you to do so. Doing so will help keep the medicine in contact with your ear canal. Repeat for the other ear if so directed. Do not rinse the dropper. Replace the cap after use. Wash your hands after using the medicine.

Use Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in your child as suggested by your child’s doctor. After your initial appointment, prefer giving it at a fixed time daily to help soften the wax. Then, use it weekly until your child’s review appointment. To prevent missing doses, make a note each time you put Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in your child’s ear.

Blockage due to hard earwax plug may cause ear discomfort, sense of ear fullness, itching in the ears, dizziness, ringing in the ears, or reflex cough. If your child complains of any of these symptoms, visit the doctor who will check and figure out the reason behind the symptoms.

Avoid using both medicines at one time. Keeping a sufficient time gap between the two medicines allows better absorption and effect of the medicine. You can ask your child’s doctor to find out how long you should wait before using the second medicine.

Always follow the instructions mentioned on the label of the medicine container about storage. Ideally, you should keep Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop at room temperature beyond the reach of the small children and pets. Do not freeze the medicine.
