Cotton swabs aren’t safe for use in ears –
there is actually a warning on the box
Cotton Swabs should never be used in the ear canal.
Many people take for granted the use of cotton swabs for removing earwax from the ear canal. The truth is that cotton swabs should never be inside the ear, and actually push wax deeper and can lead to impactions and even lead to ear infections. Pushing a cotton swab into your ear can cause injury to your eardrum. This is why there is a warning on every box of cotton swabs.
Did you know?
Cotton swabs push ear wax
further into the ear.
You may find some earwax on the top of your cotton swab when used in your ear, but the cotton swab is actually pushing the earwax deeper into the ear canal. (not successfully cleaning them). This can cause impaction, difficulty hearing and even eardrum perforations.
"Researchers found that around 66% of patients treated for traumatic eardrum perforations had caused the injury by sticking an "instrument" in their ear."Read more about the dangers of cotton swabs

It Works!
I followed the directions to the T. This is the first product that has worked for my husband. Every other product I have tried, he always ends up going to the doctor to finish it. This time it worked and he can hear. Thank You!!!!
Clean Ears
Washed out my ears and was surprised at the wax buildup that came out. Could hear a lot better. Thanks for a great product. Easy to use.
Shocking Result
After several attempts to remove ear wax without success, when I saw Wax-Rx, I must admit I was skeptical about the product. OMG it worked like a miracle. Huge wax FINALLY was removed from my both ears. And it was an easy task as long as you follow instructions. THANK YOU!!

It is an easy product to use and very effective. Much cheaper than going to the doctor's office.
Wow
Wax-Rx worked as it said. I had wax problems in my left ear. It took 3 or 4 bottles to spray. When I was done it was like night and day with my hearing. I highly recommend Wax-Rx.
Wonderful!
First time I used this system, I was amazed what came out of my ear. I could hear again!
