Has anyone ever used Claritin to dry up fluid behind an eardrum while on oxygen with COPD/EMPHASEMA?
My mom has yellow fluid behind her left eardrum. We thought it was wax this entire time & been using debrox but the ear nurse looked in & said hardly no wax at all its yellow fluid behind her eardrum & recommended Claritin to dry it up. Just regular Claritin. Thanks

It all happened when she got put on oxugen for her stage 4 copd. Thats why i asked, thanks
That sounds like a frustrating situation, especially after thinking it was wax all along! Unfortunately, this isn't something that falls within the scope of COPD-related topics, so it's not possible to give helpful guidance here on ear fluid or Claritin use for that purpose.
