Clearwax Ear Drops
Description
Clearwax Ear Drop is a combination medicine designed to provide relief from ear pain caused by impacted earwax. It helps alleviate symptoms such as decreased hearing, a feeling of fullness, and ear discomfort. The ear drop contains benzocaine, chlorbutol, paradichlorobenzene, and turpentine oil as active ingredients, which work together to soften earwax and relieve pain.
Benzocaine acts as a local anesthetic, helping to reduce pain and irritation in the ear. Turpentine oil and paradichlorobenzene help loosen and dissolve earwax, while chlorbutol acts as a preservative and mild antiseptic. This combination makes it easier to remove wax safely and provides faster relief from symptoms.
Clearwax Ear Drop should be used only in the ear as directed by your doctor. Avoid inserting anything deep into the ear canal, as this can cause injury. The drops should be administered in the correct number of drops and for the duration prescribed to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Some people may experience mild irritation or a tingling sensation in the ear after using the drops. These effects usually resolve on their own, but if they persist or worsen, consult your doctor immediately. Avoid using this ear drop if you have a perforated eardrum or severe ear infection unless advised by a healthcare professional.
Always follow your doctor’s instructions and do not use the drops on other parts of the body. Inform your doctor about any allergies or previous reactions to ear medications before using Clearwax Ear Drop. Other similar products include Soliwax ear drop, Otorex ear drop, and Ceruklin ear drop, which also contain the same combination of active ingredients.

Interactions
Interactions with other medicines
- Using other ear drops simultaneously (such as antibiotics, antifungals, or steroids) may reduce their effectiveness or increase irritation.
- Oral antibiotics or antifungal medications prescribed for ear infections can usually be continued; however, your doctor will determine whether Clearwax is necessary.
- Medicines that cause dryness in the ear canal (for example, alcohol-based antiseptic drops) may increase irritation when used in combination with Clearwax.
- Drugs that affect skin sensitivity (such as isotretinoin or other retinoids) may make the ear canal more prone to irritation when Clearwax is used.
- Since Clearwax works locally in the ear, serious interactions are rare, but it’s important to tell your doctor about all medicines, supplements, or herbal products you are using.
