Otex Sodium Bicarbonate Drops for Hardened Ear Wax, 10ml

My wife and I are both in our '60s and have dealt with hearing loss... in my case, my mother and siblings have nearly all dealt with hearing loss and excessive wax build-up in our ears. I've used a variety of ear-cleaning liquids and devices, but the very first time using this Otex solution I knew it was different – you can really feel it absorbing, and can even feel it a bit in your nasal cavity. Most importantly, my wife and I instantly felt/heard an increased clarity in our hearing that lasted (I think any wet solution can have a temporary effect due to wetting the eardrum). We have both struggled to hear dialogue in some movies we watch (usually when there's a strong background noise in the movie, like crowds talking or other noise). We could definitely sense a difference after using these drops only a couple of times. I only wish they sold it in larger bottles since we're both using it, but I guess we'll have to get a bottle for each of us – I will hide mine because she will definitely use it when hers runs out :). It's a bit pricey, but worth it for the noticeable effect it has – definitely superior to all the other highly-rated ear drops, and I think we've tried them all by now. I read a review of ear drops and this product received top ratings by hearing specialists... now I know why

I have tried several other ear drops for relief from hardened ear wax; Otex actually works for me and my ENT says to keep using even though he hadn't been aware of them. If you hate going to the doctor for torturous ear wax removal , try these because they really work for me. Also Otex is the only drops I've seen with baking soda listed as a ingredient and I give credit to that as why they work on my wax problem.

Worked okay but it says use twice a day for a max of 5 days and discard after 4 weeks of opening so unless you have a lot of people using it I feel like most just gets wasted.

I’ve used many reputable ear wax removal drops out there - this is the only one that works. Last night I couldn’t hear out of my left ear. 3 drops of this stuff and 30 minutes later, using a warm water solution and an ear syringe/bulb over the sink and I could hear again. If you visit your physician to have your ear wax removed - this is a fantastic option for removal at home. Hope it works to you too.

Didn't do anything to my earwax but perhaps noting could. Hydrogen peroxide and warm water didn't do it. I read various things that said this would work differently. Followed the instructions faithfully, using a timer. No effect.

Excellent product!

This has worked the best for breaking up stuffy ears/eareax and helped with sinus pressure. Would definitely purchase again.

I have had problems with wax buildup for almost all of my life. I did not realize how bad the problem was until I started experiencing dizziness from clogged ears. I tried: diluted hydrogen peroxide, mineral oil, gentle ear irrigation with slightly warm water, homeopathic ear drops, and liquid colace extracted from gel caps to help get rid of the wax. All of these treatments worked slightly, but when I started using sodium bicarb ear drops, the wax finally came out. I leave the drops in for a whole hour with my ear facing upwards. I pull back gently on the top of my ear to help straighten out my ear canal. Then I repeat this every day for a total of four days. After four days I gently irrigate my ear with slightly warm water (if the water is too hot or cold it can cause really bad dizziness). I am not sure why these drops are only sold in Europe; probably for the same reason that we don't have ear cleaning clinics in the US-or at least where I live. They absolutely work!
