Otex Express Combi Pack - 10ml Drops

The Otex Express Combi Pack is a medical product designed to assist in the removal of hardened ear wax from the ear canal. It includes a bottle of Otex Express ear drops and a bulb syringe, making the process of ear wax removal more accessible and easier to perform at home.

What is Otex Express Combi Pack and What is it Used For?

Otex Express Combi Pack helps in softening and removing excessive ear wax. It contains ear drops that break down ear wax into smaller pieces, and the included bulb syringe is used to rinse out any remaining wax or ear drops.

Excessive ear wax build-up can cause discomfort, pain, dizziness, and even partial hearing loss. Otex Express Combi Pack is designed to simplify ear wax removal and can often replace the need for professional ear syringing by a doctor or nurse.

The Otex Express Combi Pack is suitable for use by adults, the elderly, and children over 12 years of age.

Before You Use Otex Express Combi Pack

Do not use Otex Express Combi Pack if:

• You are allergic to any ingredients of the ear drops.
• You have a history of ear problems (unless under medical supervision).
• You are using other ear treatments or hearing aids.
• Your ear drum is damaged.
• You suffer from dizziness or have any infection, pain, swelling, or discharge from the ear.
• You have previously used sharp objects like cotton buds to remove ear wax, as this can cause injury to the ear canal.

Special Care:

• Consult a doctor before using Otex Express ear drops in children under the age of 5 years.
• Children under 12 years should not use the bulb syringe unless recommended by a healthcare professional.
• If the ear drops get into the eyes, rinse them immediately with water for 10-15 minutes. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:

Otex Express Combi Pack can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding. The ingredients have been in widespread use for many years without reports of issues, although safety trials have not been conducted.

How to Use Otex Express Combi Pack

For adults, the elderly, and children over 12 years old:

1. Step 1 - Ear Drops:
• Twist the cap of the bottle counter-clockwise to break the seal.
• Tilt your head to the side and squeeze up to 5 drops into the ear.
• Keep the head tilted for a few minutes to let the drops stay in the ear.
• Wipe away any excess liquid with a tissue.
• Repeat the same for the other ear if needed.

In many cases, this step will soften and expel the ear wax naturally over 3-4 days.

1. Step 2 - Bulb Syringe:
• After 3-4 days of ear drops treatment, if any ear wax or drops remain, use the bulb syringe to rinse out the ear.
• Fill the syringe with warm (not hot) water, and gently rinse the ear canal over a basin.
• Repeat the process until the ear feels clear.
• Do not insert the nozzle deep into the ear canal, and avoid using excessive pressure to avoid ear damage.

Note: If the wax does not clear or if there is discomfort, seek further advice from a healthcare provider.

Possible Side Effects

Like all ear treatments, Otex Express Combi Pack may cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them.

• A mild bubbling sensation is common as the drops break down ear wax.
• Irritation or discomfort, temporary hearing loss, dizziness, and tinnitus (ringing in the ears) may occur, especially after ear irrigation.
• Rarely, an unpleasant taste may be noticed, in which case the ear drops should be stopped immediately and medical advice should be sought.

If symptoms persist or any side effects become severe, discontinue use and consult your doctor.

How to Store Otex Express Combi Pack

• Keep the product out of the reach of children.
• Store below 25°C, away from direct sunlight.
• Once opened, the ear drops should be used within 4 weeks.
• Always close the cap tightly after use and store the bottle upright in the outer carton.
