Cerumol Olive Oil Ear Drops

What are Cerumol Olive Oil Ear Drops?

Cerumol Olive Oil Ear Drops are made with 100% extra-virgin olive oil, which gently softens and removes excess earwax, helping it fall out more easily. It comes with a dropper to deliver a small dose into the outer ear.

Because of its natural ingredients, Cerumol Olive Oil Ear Drops are well tolerated and unlikely to cause side effects. They do not need to be warmed in the hand before use. However, as the drops contain olive oil, excess product may leave a temporary greasy mark on clothing.

Cerumol Olive Oil Ear Drops are cerumenolytic, meaning they soften and break down hardened earwax, making removal easier. 

What is Earwax Impaction?

Earwax build-up occurs for several reasons. Some people naturally produce more earwax, which can lead to buildup. Earwax impaction can also result from excessive earphone use or attempts to remove earwax with cotton buds. Instead of removing the wax, these actions often push it deeper into the ear, causing a blockage.

Earwax plays a crucial role in our ears by trapping dust, debris and germs, and protecting against microorganisms. However, when too much builds up, it can become impacted and block the ear canal.
