My son has an over production of ear wax, there is no infection, as confirmed by our doctor. how can i use colace (docusate sodium) to soften wax before doc irrigation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ear wax : I would use over the counter debrox to soften ear wax. Haven't heard of colace (docusate sodium) for ears. Colace (docusate sodium) is a stool softener for constipation.
