Waxolve Ear Drop is a combination medicine used to soften and help dissolve hardened ear wax. It contains Benzocaine, Chlorbutol, Paradichlorobenzene, and Turpentine Oil. The drops work by breaking down the wax, lubricating the ear canal, and providing local pain relief when wax build-up causes discomfort. Use only in the dose and for the duration advised by your doctor. Wash hands before use and avoid touching the dropper tip to keep the solution clean.
