Dose Advice of Aquaear:

The recommended dose for Aquaear is four to six drops into the ear canal after bathing or swimming. To administer these drops, you should tilt your head to one side and instil 4-6 drops and keep that position for at least 1 minute for the best effect. Repeat this again for the other ear.

Aquaear is not recommended in patients who are suffering from earache or when discharge is coming out of the ear canal. It is also not recommended for patients with any severe ear conditions e.g. severe otitis externa, otitis media or a perforated ear drum.
