For Ear Wax Impaction "For anyone reading this after you realized this product made you have hearing loss. For hours, I was freaking out. I tried everything. I’m here to save you an ER trip. Take the palm of your hand, put it against your ear. Plunge your ear as you would a toilet. Took about 5 plunges… water came pouring out. I could instantly hear. However, I’m left with an earache. No earwax was even removed. How is this even sold?"

For Ear Wax Impaction "I have issues with wax in my ears all the damn time, and every single time I am condescendingly told to use this ridiculous product that does absolutely nothing but make things worse. I was deaf for two weeks and had to take medication in 2018 because of this drug, as I should've gone to get the wax removed, yet the Debrox had to have given me an ear infection. I sit here now with it in my ear reluctantly, and once again it is not working. Screw this drug, it should be removed from shelves."

For Ear Wax Impaction "Just like everyone else here, it only made things worse. I had been recommended Debrox by an urgent care doctor when I asked about if there was a way to clean my ears out at home. I used this, and it made my hearing worse and gave me a nasty earache. It softened a little bit of ear wax that came out as drainage, but it definitely wasn't going to unclog my ears. Just go to a doctor for this, as annoying as it is, using Debrox is worse."
