Q. Can Otex be used during pregnancy/breast-feeding?
A. Pregnant women should always consult their doctor before using any medicines during pregnancy. As a general rule, it is also advisable to be cautious about the use of any medication during breast-feeding unless prescribed by a doctor. It's also worth bearing in mind that unless treatment is needed urgently, it may be appropriate to delay this until after pregnancy and/or breast-feeding. That being the case, however, there are no specific concerns regarding the use of Otex during pregnancy or breast-feeding.

Q. Can Otex be used if you suffer with tinnitus?
A. If you are suffering from any other ear problem you should not use Otex unless under supervision from your doctor.

Q. Can Otex be used on children?
A. Children tend not to suffer with impacted ear wax, so it's a good idea to seek expert medical advice from a doctor.

Q. Does Otex contain any nut derivative?
A. None of the ingredients of Otex are derived from any nut.

Q. Is it advisable to use Otex before syringing?
A. Published clinical trials have demonstrated that recent use of Otex can make ear syringing much easier, and in some cases can avoid the need for syringing altogether. It should not be necessary to use any ear wax remover drops soon after syringing because it generally takes a few months for new wax to build up. If the problem recurs much sooner than this you should seek medical advice because this should not normally happen.

Q. Hearing aids
A. If you are using a hearing aid then you should not use Otex. It is advisable to seek expert medicinal advice if you have a history of any other ear problems.

Q. Has Otex been tested on animals?
