Can drug-induced deafness be cured?

Drug deafness is difficult to reverse once it occurs. Stopping medication in time when drug deafness is detected may prevent further deterioration and reduce further hearing loss. Drug deafness refers to the use of certain drugs or exposure to certain chemicals, causing cochlear and, or vestibular toxicity lesions, resulting in deafness and, or vestibular dysfunction. Common drugs that cause drug-induced deafness include: aminoglycosides, antitumor drugs, labeled diuretics, salicylates, heavy metals, and so on. Pharmacological deafness such as timely detection, immediately after stopping the drug, and with the use of some medication, or can make the condition stop developing, prevent further deterioration, such as aminoglycoside toxic deafness, can use vitamin B1, nimodipine, cipro and other inner ear vasodilators, as well as ATP, coenzyme A and other energy preparations. Drugs must be applied under the supervision of a physician. Drug-induced deafness is more of a preventive than a curative measure, so it is important to read the instructions carefully and follow your doctor’s advice when using medications.
