For relief of pain in otitis externa and media, furuncles and other local inflammation, softening of earwax and aid to earwax removal.
Topical into ear.
Place the head on one side with the affected ear uppermost. Completely fill the external auditory canal with drops. The ear should be plugged with cotton wool soaked with the eardrops or a wick may be inserted if preferred. Audax Ear Drops should be instilled every 3 to 4 hours until permanent relief of symptoms is obtained.
Each bottle of Audax Ear Drops contains 1.6g of choline salicylate equivalent to 1.2g of aspirin. Accidental or deliberate ingestion of the contents of a bottle of Audax Ear Drops is therefore only of concern in small infants.
In such cases, signs of intoxification may include dizziness, tinnitus, sweating, vomiting, confusion and hyperventilation. Gross overdosage may lead to central nervous system depression.
Management should include, as appropriate, induced vomiting, correction of fluid and electrolyte balance and measurement of plasma salicylate levels. At concentrations in excess of 300 mg/litre measures such as forced alkaline diuresis and haemodialysis to enhance clearance may be appropriate.
3 years.
Do not store above 25°C.
