Key ingredients and their functions:

- Phenazone 4%: Provides analgesic and anti-inflammatory action to help relieve pain and inflammation.

- Lidocaine hydrochloride 1%: A local anaesthetic that helps reduce pain by temporarily numbing the affected area.

- Other ingredients: Sodium thiosulfate, ethanol, glycerol, and purified water, according to the product leaflet.

• Otipax is intended for use in the ear when the eardrum is intact. It may be prescribed or recommended for appropriate cases of middle-ear pain, but it does not treat the underlying cause of every ear infection and is not a substitute for medical assessment when symptoms suggest a more serious condition.

• Important precautions: Do not use Otipax if the eardrum is perforated or if you are allergic to phenazone, lidocaine, or any of its other ingredients. Follow the package instructions and consult a healthcare professional if ear pain persists or worsens.

• Pack information: The supplied listing states 16g solution, 10ml. Published product information commonly describes a bottle containing 16g of solution in a 15ml container. Confirm the actual bottle label before publishing the volume to avoid a packaging discrepancy.
