A-cerumen: indications and dosage

The drug A-cerumen is designed specifically for cleaning the ear canals from excessive accumulation of sulfur., and also as a prophylactic against the formation of plugs in the ears in patients with an increased level of earwax secretion.

Ear wax protects the ear from infections, dust and foreign bodies. It controls the number of bacteria, usually present on the surface of the skin of the external auditory canal. Besides, earwax moisturizes the eardrum, preventing its hardening and stiffness, contributes to better sound transmission.

Under normal conditions, earwax is secreted and moves towards the external auditory canal during chewing movements.. Any violation of this process leads to the accumulation of earwax. Consequently, sulfur plug is formed, which interferes with the normal functioning of the ears, which leads to hearing loss, tinnitus, dizziness and the like.

The use of mild ear hygiene products helps keep the external auditory canal clean and prevents the accumulation of earwax.

A-cerumen can be used for daily cleaning of the ears for patients with hearing aids, in-ear headphones, other types of headsets and devices, which are attached to the external auricle and contribute to increased sweating and the production of wax in the ear.
