A member asked:

Do you still need to take out the wax with the syringe if you left debrox ear drops over night?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe / not: If the drops dissolved the wax it may have drained onto a pillow or sheets in the night. Sometimes it takes multiple treatments to get it all, so some may still be left.
