Soliwax Ear Drops is a combination medicine used to dissolve earwax and relieve ear discomfort. Earwax generally traps and prevents dust, bacteria, other germs and small objects from entering and damaging the ear. But in some people, glands produce more wax than usual and may harden and block the ear canal resulting in wax impactions (build-up of layers of earwax and blockage of the ear canal).

Soliwax Ear Drops is a combination of five drugs, namely: Benzocaine, BHA (Butylated hydroxyanisole), Chlorbutol, Paradichlorobenzene and Turpentine oil. Benzocaine is a local anaesthetic that blocks pain signals from nerves to the brain and reduces the sensation of pain. Chlorbutol and BHA act as preservatives. Paradichlorobenzene is an earwax softener that decreases the thickness of earwax. Turpentine oil acts as a lubricating agent.

Earwax: The ear canal has glands that produce cerumen (waxy oil). Wax can accumulate and block the ear canal. Earwax generally traps and prevents dust, bacteria, other germs and small objects from entering and damaging the ear. But in some people, glands produce more wax than usual and may harden and block the ear canal resulting in wax impactions (build-up of layers of earwax and blockage of the ear canal). The symptoms of earwax include ear pain, decreased hearing, ringing in the ear, dizziness, fullness or plugged sensation. Earwax can be removed by using gentle suction, curette (a small plastic spoon) or irrigating the ear with sodium bicarbonate, warm water or certain ear drops.
