Description
OtoFen DOLORE Ear Drops is a medical device whose action is based on the osmotic properties of glycerol. The main ingredient in OtoFen DOLORE Ear Drops is glycerol. The glycerol used in ear drops has two main properties:
1. the oily consistency of glycerol makes it adhere delicately to the skin at the point of application and is responsible for its protective properties;
2. The hygroscopicity of glycerol, administered topically, allows the removal of water retained in the tissues (osmotic effect), reducing swelling and therefore relieving pain.
The glycerol contained in the medical device softens earwax, facilitates its expulsion, and, due to its ability to absorb water, removes excess fluid (osmotic effect), promoting the elimination of symptoms that occur in inflammatory conditions, such as ear pain and swelling. Glycerol has a causative effect. Lidocaine is an adjuvant used as a local anesthetic, which intensifies the action of glycerol and relieves ear pain.

4. Turn the bottle of OtoFen DOLORE Ear Drops upside down without the cap and press on both sides, dispensing 2 drops of product into the ear.
