Most shoppers land on this page when they need earwax softening drops for blocked ears, muffled hearing, or a “full” sensation in the ear. Sodium bicarbonate ear drops are commonly used as a gentle first step to soften wax before it clears naturally or before professional removal. If you’re unsure it’s earwax (or you have ear pain, discharge, fever, dizziness, or sudden hearing changes), it’s safest to speak to a pharmacist, GP, or NHS 111 before self-treating.
Sodium bicarbonate ear drops are commonly used to help soften hardened earwax. Softening wax may make it easier to clear naturally or to remove professionally if needed.
Follow the product label and patient leaflet exactly. Use the recommended number of drops for the stated number of days, and avoid using longer or more often than directed.
Earwax often causes a blocked feeling or reduced hearing without severe pain. Infection is more likely if there’s significant pain, discharge, fever, or feeling unwell. If you’re unsure, ask a pharmacist or GP before using ear drops.
Don’t use ear drops unless a pharmacist or GP says it’s appropriate if you have a perforated (burst) eardrum, grommets, ear surgery history, or ongoing ear disease. Seek advice first if you have severe symptoms or recurrent problems.
If symptoms don’t improve after using the drops as directed, or if they worsen, speak to a pharmacist or GP. You may need assessment to confirm the cause or discuss professional wax removal.
Suitability can vary by product and age. Check the product page, label and leaflet, and ask a pharmacist for guidance if buying for a child—especially if symptoms include pain or have lasted more than a few days.
Get urgent advice if you have severe ear pain, discharge or bleeding, fever, facial weakness, dizziness/vertigo, or sudden hearing loss. If you’re concerned, contact your GP, out-of-hours service, or NHS 111.
Safety note: Pharmacy products can help manage symptoms but aren’t suitable for everyone. Always read the label and leaflet and use as directed. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have an underlying condition, take regular medicines, or your symptoms are severe, persistent, or worsening, speak to a pharmacist or GP for personalised advice.
