EpiKlean is formulated to clean the ear canal and support a healthy ear environment, combining salicylic acid, a keratolytic ingredient studied for its role in breaking down debris and wax, with parachlorometaxylenol (PCMX), an antimicrobial ingredient.
The solution is applied into the ear canal and massaged at the base of the ear before wiping away excess with a cotton ball, and is intended for routine ear hygiene rather than treatment of a specific ear condition.
