Hearing loss due to Medication
Namaste sir/mam ! I am taking mikacin 500 mg twice daily, for infection in urine. It's been 4 days. feeling relief but experiencing a ringing in right ear. Is it due to this medication? I am thinking of stopping but i fear antibiotic resistance may develop if i stop this medicine early. Please guide me 🙏.
