Cerumol ear drops for removing ear wax

How do you clear your child's ear wax? do you dig it out or remove it by using ear drops?

I am a bit scare to dig my girls' ear to remove the wax. Their ears' drum are very delicate and they will tend to move their heads when they feel the tickling feeling when I dig their ears so I opt to use ear drops.

The last time I applied the Soluwax ear drops on them was more than a year ago. Recently Crystal complaint to me that her ears are itchy and suspect got lots of ear wax inside, she has been trying to use her little fingers to dig them out but to no avail.

We kept forgetting to buy the ear drop when we were out and about for the past weeks and only remembered to get a bottle from the pharmacy last Saturday.

The pharmacy prescribed the Cerumol ear drops for us. To loosen and removal of ear wax, instill 5 drops into the ear canal with the head tilted, best to lay down on one side, may feel a tingling sensation but it is harmless, keep the head tilted for few minutes to avoid the solution from running out from the ear.

The Cerumol solution contains peanut oil, use the ear drop solution for 3 consecutive days, the wax will come out by itself as mentioned in the direction for use, but DO NOT use more than 3 days.

So far I only applied this ear drop once to my girls' ears and they did not complain of itchiness again. This ear drop is selling at RM13.95 per bottle.

removing ear wax

The doctor prescribed this ear wax remover drop for our girls when we visited her clinic more than a year ago. We used it once or twice to ease the excessive wax from Crystal ears. This is the SOLUWAX ear drops , its function is for softening the ear wax thereby it can be removed or drop out by itself easily.

And last week Crystal complained that her ears were very itchy and kept digging them with her fingers when she was trying to sleep at night. She requested for the ear drops. But we had to get a new bottle as the one we have had already expired on 01.08.09. Even though it had only expired for about 2 weeks, to be safe than sorry, I got Clet to buy a new bottle.

I have been applying the drops on Crystal's ear for the last 2 nights, Pearl saw it and wanted the drops for her ear as well. She too having plenty of wax in her ears. We have never cleared our girls ear wax since they were born cos too scare to hurt their ears with the little scoopy thingy knowing their always on the move characters so it would be safer to use ear drops.

Pearl thought it is fun and giggling there when I put the drop in her ear, she supposed to tilt her head for 4-5 minutes, she does not even bother, started with her playful act soon after I put the ear drops. hmmm... How do you clear your children's ear wax??
