Otex ear drops are used to help remove hardened wax from the ear canal.
• Otex is suitable for use by adults, children and the elderly.
• The active ingredient is urea hydrogen peroxide. It works by breaking down the ear wax into small pieces.
• Excessive, hardened ear wax is quite common. It causes problems when it builds up and blocks the ear canal. The first symptom is usually a feeling of discomfort and fullness in the ear. This can become painful and cause dizziness and some loss of hearing if left untreated.
• Otex makes removal of ear wax easier, and in many cases avoids the need for ear syringing.
What Otex contains:
The active ingredient is urea hydrogen peroxide (5% w/w).
The other ingredients are 8-hydroxyquinoline and glycerol.
Like all medicines, Otex can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
• A temporary mild bubbling sensation in the ear can occur (due to the release of oxygen as the drops break down the ear wax).
• The ear drops can make the symptoms of excessive ear wax worse, including some discomfort, irritation or pain, loss of hearing, dizziness and tinnitus (ringing sound in the ear).
• Very rarely, an unpleasant taste has been reported. Stop using the ear drops immediately if this happens and tell your doctor.
If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to urea hydrogen peroxide or any of the other ingredients of Otex.
Do not use Otex:
• If you have a history of ear problems, unless used under the close supervision of your doctor, nurse or pharmacist
• If you are also putting anything else in the ear (such as other ear drops or a hearing aid).
