Ciplox D is an antibiotic drop. Unless you had gotten superadded infection, it shouldn’t be used lest it can cause harm.

Use Soliwax or Waxonil ear drops 3 drops 5 times a day for 5 days. Revisit the ENT surgeon after completing the course for wax removal.
Ciplox d would help only if you have ear infection. It doesn't act as a wax softner.
