For Ear Wax Impaction "I cannot believe this stuff is OTC. I used it exactly as directed, twice a day for 4 days in my right ear. I did flushes every time immediately after use. Since the first use, my right ear feels like it's full of water and under pressure. I have ringing in it too. Practically zero wax was removed, but my hearing is worse and the tinnitus is maddening. I got this to save time, rather than go to an ENT. I seriously regret that decision."

For Ear Wax Impaction "My primary care doctor recommended this product. It did clear up the earwax, but I now have a constant ringing in my left ear. It disrupts my sleep, work, and daily life, and has been bothering me for about a year now (ever since I tried this stuff). I really miss the sound of silence. I told my primary care doctor about the tinnitus, and they don’t seem to care; they just shrugged their shoulders and wrote a note. I’ll have to see a specialist, I guess. I really, really regret using this product. I’d much rather live with earwax than tinnitus. I truly wish I could take it back. Just don’t try it, not even if your doctor recommends it. Get them to unblock your ears for you. It’s not worth it."

For Ear Wax Impaction "Do your research first. Urgent care told me to use this stuff. It is nasty. Four days and still ringing in ear. Blocked like swimmer's ear. I even used the soft rubber bulb with warm water and made it even worse. Now I have to go back to the doctor. It did not work. Very frustrating. Especially when you have 90% bad reviews."

For Ear Wax Impaction "I used this medication to help remove earwax. I followed the instructions for use correctly and also had help twice from clinic staff, but I have developed an unbearable continuous ringing in my ear that is called tinnitus. I would not recommend this product."

For Ear Wax Impaction "On the exact day, November 14, 2020, I used this product because my doctor recommended I use it, because of how much earwax was in my right ear. I used it, and the next day, I had a terrible ringing in my ear. Two days later, I got the earwax out, but the ringing DID NOT STOP. To this day, I still have it in my right ear, and I’m very worried I might have it for the rest of my life. I just wish that I could go back in time and just get the doctors to flush out my ear normally. Don’t get this product. It’s horrible."

For Ear Wax Impaction "I used this ear wax removal, Debrox, and now I can't get rid of the ringing first in one ear, now in both. This is really bothering me, and I don't know what to do about the ringing. HELP!"
