Overview
Carbamide peroxide is a source of hydrogen peroxide and nascent oxygen; the effervescence caused by the release of oxygen mechanically removes debris from inaccessible regions.
USES: This medication is used to treat earwax buildup. It helps to soften, loosen, and remove the earwax. Too much earwax can block the ear canal and reduce hearing.
This medication releases oxygen and starts to foam when it comes in contact with the skin. The foaming helps break up and remove the earwax. Consult your doctor before using this product in children younger than 12 years.
