Description
Aurivis is a medical device whose main action is based on the osmotic properties of glycerol, which has two important basic characteristics:
- the oily consistency that makes it adhere delicately to the skin performing a protective function.
- hygroscopicity that allows water to be absorbed from the tissues (osmotic effect), reducing swelling and thus reducing pain.
Lidocaine is used as an auxiliary agent of superficial anesthesia that intensifies the action and further soothes the pain in the ear.
The glycerol, contained in the Aurivis® medical device, softens the earwax, favoring its removal, and, thanks to its hygroscopic capacity, removes excess fluid from the tissues of the ear canal (osmotic effect), thus determining the elimination of disorders related to conditions of inflammation of the ear, such as pain and swelling.

How to use
1. Wash your hands thoroughly and unscrew the cap from the bottle.
2. Tilt your head to one side (or lie on your side) so that the ear to be treated is facing up.
3. Gently pull the earlobe forward and out.
4. Insert the dispenser into the ear and press the bottle on both sides by delivering 2 drops of product into the ear.
5. Stand with the head tilted for a few minutes so that the drops can flow into the ear canal.
6. Remove excess liquid with a clean tissue.
7. At the end of the application it is recommended to close the external ear canal with a cotton swab.
8. Recap the bottle.
Adults and children over 6 months of age: 2 drops up to 3 times a day.
In children, always use under the supervision of a doctor; after use it is necessary to protect the child's ear with a cotton swab.
If there is no improvement after 3 days or the situation worsens, consult your doctor. Only the doctor is able to verify the success of the treatment Aurivis should not be used in children under 6 months of age. For external use only.
