Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop
Prescription Required
Your child’s medicine at a glance
Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop is a medicinal remedy that effectively softens the hardened ear wax plugs, removes dirt, and dead skin cells from the ear. It treats ear pain due to earwax accumulation in children.
Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop is meant for external use only. Put this medicine in your child’s affected ear as prescribed by the doctor. Maintain good ear hygiene while using Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in your child’s ear. Do not let the medicine applicator touch your child’s ear to avoid the chances of contamination. To put the medicine, hold the earlobe down and push it backward gently. Don’t be alarmed if your child reports a popping sound as this happens when the medicine drops work their way down. Wipe off the extra medicine with clean tissue paper.
Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop is a good option for children having recurrent ear wax issues. Give Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in the dose and frequency as prescribed by your child's doctor. Usually, 2 drops of the medicine are prescribed to be given every 4 hours for 5 to 7 days. Do not overuse it as that may lead to ear discomfort. If you are to treat both ears, wait for a few minutes after putting the medicine in one ear. This will allow better absorption and avoid leaking out of the medicine. Make sure not to stop the medicine without consulting your child’s doctor. If the child does not feel any relief after treatment then it would be best to go to seek a professional help.
Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop is a relatively safe medicine to be used in children and has minimal side effects. However, it may cause mild and temporary irritation in the ear on application. Never self-medicate and do not use Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop without consulting the doctor, especially if your child has an ear infection.

Benefits of Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop for your child
In Softening of earwax
Earwax is a glandular secretion that helps moisturize and protect the ears. It also helps remove dirt and dead skin cells in the ear. Accumulation of wax in the ear is usually asymptomatic but can occasionally cause bothersome symptoms, such as hearing loss and/or ear discomfort. Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop acts as a lubricant and helps to soften or break the earwax plugs, making it easier for it to move out of the canal.
Side effects of Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in children
Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop does not pose serious side effects and is well-tolerated by children. In case the side effects do occur, they’re likely to subside once the body adapts to the medicine. Consult your child’s doctor if these side effects persist or bother your child. The most common side effects include-
Common side effects of Wax-Off
- Irritation of ear
How can I give Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop to my child?
This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Hold the dropper close to the ear without touching it. Gently squeeze the dropper and place the medicine inside ear.
How Wax-Off Ear Drop works
The exact mechanism used by Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop to act is not known clearly. However, it is believed that Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop softens, lubricates, breaks up, and/or dissolves the ear wax. As a result, it becomes easy to remove the plugged ear wax which contains glandular secretion, water, dead skin cells, and microorganisms like bacteria.

Quick tips
- Understand that earwax is normal. If it does not cause bothersome symptoms, it should not be tampered with.
- Do not use cotton swabs or buds to clean your child’s ear as it pushes the earwax deep inside and makes the wax difficult to extract.
- Abstain your child from rolling fingers and scratching their ear canal soon after putting the medicine to avoid the medicine from draining out and risk of infection.
- Ask your child to keep lying down for at least 2-3 minutes after putting Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop. Doing so allows the medicine to soak into the ear wax.
- Replace the medicine cap immediately after use.
- Inform the child's doctor about anything abnormal such as blood, oozing, pain, or change in hearing.

FAQs
Q. Why is it important to treat my child’s ear with Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop?
Using this medicine is not mandatory for every child. Its use may help prevent pain, ringing in the ears, and infection in children who use hearing aids or have a history of excessive earwax. Discussion with your child’s doctor will help determine whether anything should be done for your child.
Q. How often should I remove earwax from my child’s ear?
There is no standard time to prevent or clean earwax buildup. It is a natural process and nothing needs to be done unless excess earwax accumulates. Ask your child’s doctor if there is anything special that you can do to prevent or reduce the accumulation of earwax.
Q. Can I use cotton-tipped swabs to remove wax from my child's ear?
Cotton-tipped swabs can remove some wax but they often simply push the wax deeper into the ear. This may traumatize the ear canal or even worsen earwax buildup. So, it is not advised to use cotton swabs deep into the ear canals.
Q. If earwax is removed, will my child’s hearing get better?
Removing the earwax may improve your child’s hearing if the hearing issues were due to blockage in the ear canal. However, remember that Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop does not play any role in improving hearing abilities. If your child’s hearing continues to be reduced, make sure to consult an expert.
Q. How can I use Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in my child?
Ask your child to lie down or sit with the affected ear facing up. Hold the dropper directly over the ear, and place the prescribed number of drops into the ear canal. To help the drops roll into the ear, hold the earlobe down and back. Keep the head tilted for about 2 minutes, or insert a piece of cotton if your doctor directs you to do so. Doing so will help keep the medicine in contact with your ear canal. Repeat for the other ear if so directed. Do not rinse the dropper. Replace the cap after use. Wash your hands after using the medicine.
Q. What is the right time to put Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in my child’s ear?
Use Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in your child as suggested by your child’s doctor. After your initial appointment, prefer giving it at a fixed time daily to help soften the wax. Then, use it weekly until your child’s review appointment. To prevent missing doses, make a note each time you put Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop in your child’s ear.
Q. How do I know if my child has earwax blockage?
Blockage due to hard earwax plug may cause ear discomfort, sense of ear fullness, itching in the ears, dizziness, ringing in the ears, or reflex cough. If your child complains of any of these symptoms, visit the doctor who will check and figure out the reason behind the symptoms.
Q. My child is having an earwax plug and an ear infection. Can I use two medicines together?
Avoid using both medicines at one time. Keeping a sufficient time gap between the two medicines allows better absorption and effect of the medicine. You can ask your child’s doctor to find out how long you should wait before using the second medicine.
Q. Where should I store Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop at home?
Always follow the instructions mentioned on the label of the medicine container about storage. Ideally, you should keep Wax-Off Kid Ear Drop at room temperature beyond the reach of the small children and pets. Do not freeze the medicine.
