Speaking of ears clogged with cerumen, are there
Subject: Speaking of ears clogged with cerumen, are there
any ENT MTs who know if there is another product, other than Debrox, or Cerumenix (which was by RX only, but discontinued) to remove chronic earwax, other than going to the ENT to have them irrigated and removed with a curette?
I can't seem to find any drug on the market; prescription or otherwise, other than those mentioned above, which were of no benefit.
Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
