Directions for use:
- Tilt head sideways and put five drops into the affected ear, plug with cotton wool and leave for twenty minutes. Repeat two to three times a day for up to three days until the wax has cleared.
- With the head tilted sideways, 5 drops are put into the ear. This may cause a harmless tingling sensation.
- A plug of cotton wool moistened with Cerumol or smeared with petroleum jelly should then be applied to retain the liquid.
- One hour later, or the next morning, the plug is removed.
- The procedure is repeated twice a day for three days; the loosened wax may then come out on its own making syringing unnecessary.
- If any wax remains the doctor should be consulted so that syringing of the softened residue may be carried out.
