FAQs

How often should I use Care+ Sodium Bicarbonate Ear Drops?

You should apply 3 to 4 drops into the ear twice a day for up to seven days, or as advised by a healthcare professional. Keep your head tilted for a few minutes after application.

Can I use this product if I have an ear infection?

No, this product is not suitable for use if you have an ear infection. Please consult a doctor or other healthcare professional for advice regarding ear infections.

What should I do if I get the drops in my eyes?

If the drops accidentally come into contact with your eyes, rinse them thoroughly with clean water and seek medical advice if irritation persists.

Can children use these ear drops?

Yes, these drops are suitable for children, but children under five years of age should only receive them under medical supervision.

How long does it take to soften earwax?

The softening process typically takes a few days of consistent application (twice daily). For very hard or impacted wax, it may take the full course of treatment, or professional assistance may be required.

What are the ingredients?

The active ingredient is Sodium Bicarbonate BP 5% w/v. Other ingredients include Glycerol (E422), Purified Water, and Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol (Preservative).

Can I insert the dropper into my ear?

No, you should avoid contact between the dropper and the ear or any other surface. Do not insert the dropper or any solid object into the ear canal.

Troubleshooting

Ear feels blocked after use.

This can sometimes happen as the wax softens. Continue with the treatment as directed. If discomfort increases or persists, consult a healthcare professional.

No noticeable improvement after several days.

Ensure drops are being applied correctly and consistently. If the earwax is significantly hardened or impacted, professional medical advice or intervention may be necessary.

Irritation or discomfort in the ear.

Discontinue use immediately and rinse the ear gently with warm water if possible. Consult a doctor or pharmacist, especially if symptoms worsen.
