<P>Great website, Joe!  <P> I can also post the more comprehensive list I sent a few months back, if anyone's interested.  However, if anyone has questions about a specific medicine, I still advise them to find out all they can about it. <P>I was reading a Hyperacusis chat list a few days ago where someone said she thought maybe her hyperacusis started after she began taking a drug called cipro.  So, when the professor was showing us the list, she asked for someone to ask for a drug by name and she would look it up for us.  I called out cipro, and sure enough, there are a list of symptoms for cipro that affect the hearing.  Cipro isn't on either list.   <P>It's simply a matter that if someone is taking some kind of medicine that they have a question about, I would be happy to tell them what the list says.  Of course, the only way to find out for sure is to ask one's physician; any lists are incomplete and cannot deal with the individual and his particular set of circumstances. <P>Diane <P>Diane Hofstetter <P>  <B><I>Joseph Alkana <josephspiano@attbi.com></I></B> wrote: <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid"> <META content="MSHTML 5.50.4616.200" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> <DIV>List:</DIV> <DIV>I just found this web site that may be of some interest regarding drugs and hearing.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><A href="http://www1.health-center.com/wellness/hearing/drugs.htm">http://www1.health-center.com/wellness/hearing/drugs.htm</A></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Joseph Alkana  RPT<BR><A href="mailto:josephspiano@attbi.com">josephspiano@attbi.com</A></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black"><B>From:</B> <A title=mcpiano@globetrotter.net href="mailto:mcpiano@globetrotter.net">Marcel Carey</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>To:</B> <A title=pianotech@ptg.org href="mailto:pianotech@ptg.org">pianotech@ptg.org</A> </DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Sent:</B> Monday, February 04, 2002 4:31 PM</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"><B>Subject:</B> RE: Ototoxic drugs</DIV> <DIV><BR></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=550422900-05022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Diane, I think this is of interest to all piano techs.
