For Ear Wax Impaction "Works very well. I find that chewing gum while using this helps out a lot. Chewing gum opens up your ear canal. I use it once every other week."

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!"

For Ear Wax Impaction "I used this product one time, and my ears have continued to be completely clogged and painful. I called the doctor, who said it would probably eventually clear. I would not recommend this product."

For Ear Wax Impaction "Absolutely horrible. Only made it more clogged, the syringe does nothing. I don't think this company understands gravity. This is a scam."

For Ear Wax Impaction "I've had a clogged ear for MONTHS, and of course no health insurance, so I just waited until it got really bad. I tried Debrox like 4 times all in one day. It didn’t work the first four times I tried it, but the fifth time it worked, and I could finally hear again! What ended up working was putting the drops in, then waiting 10 minutes (previous attempts I waited up to 30 minutes because it really wouldn’t stop fizzing), then flushing it out with the bulb, but then the magic ingredient was I pushed on my little ear flap thing, lol, and used it like a plunger just pushing back and forth (relatively quickly actually). I felt some pressure, and then boom, I could suddenly hear again. I think it was weakening the wax plus that plunging motion. I also feel like if you wait too long like I did, where I was waiting 30 minutes for it to stop fizzing on my first four attempts, also made it hard for the wax to come out because it was sinking deeper, so don’t be like me, lol. But in the end, it worked!"
