Ototoxic drugs and chemicals

Ototoxicity is damage to the ear caused by drugs or chemicals. Drugs that are thought to cause hearing loss include drugs for malaria (quinine and chloroquine) and salicylates like aspirin, but the hearing loss is believed to be temporary. Certain industrial chemicals, such as solvents, are also implicated in hearing damage.Suggestions to avoid drug-related hearing damage include:Discuss concerns about medications with your doctor.Take medications only as directed.See your doctor immediately if you experience unusual symptoms, such as tinnitus, while on a course of drugs.If your line of work involves chemicals, talk to your occupational health and safety officer about ways to reduce your exposure.
