Case ReportsA 37-year-old woman with marked renal impairment due to Results: A total of 194 systemically administered medications associated with ototoxicity were identified, most commonly antimicrobials (53), psychotropics (21), antihypertensive/antiarrhythmics (19), nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (18), and antineoplastics (16)
The effects of these medications vary significantly
Furosemide injection is followed by a rapid, but reversible decrease of the Endocochlear potential and eighth nerve action potential with a more gradual decrease of the endolymph potassium concentration
Ototoxic drug effects were determined by In small studies, furosemide use has been associated with hearing loss that is usually reversible, but can be permanent
In addition, incidence severity of ototoxic hearing loss seems to be dose-dependent and cumulative in There are over 200 medications that are potentially ototoxic and can cause hearing and balance problems
The loop diuretic furosemide is associated with ototoxicity The clinical manifestation of loop diuretic ototoxicity is sensorineural hearing loss
Because of the serious nature of this adverse drug reaction, the intent of this article is heightening the awareness of furosemide-induced ototoxicity through case presentation
Ototoxicity occurs when you get ear poisoning due to such medications
13 In addition, nephrotoxicity of nephrotoxic drugs such as cisplatin may be enhanced if Health effects caused by ototoxic chemicals vary based on exposure frequency, intensity, duration, workplace exposure to other hazards, and individual factors such as age
Ethacrynic acid has been known to have a more ototoxic potential than the other members and can lead to permanent sensorineural hearing loss without proper caution of its use, especially concomitantly with another loop diuretic
Patients receiving high doses of Effects of aspirin on hearing loss
It is for this reason that the infusion rate for furosemide is not to exceed 4 mg/min
746: 0
Common ototoxic drugs include antibiotics like aminoglycosides, 1 loop diuretics 2 such as furosemide, platinum-based chemotherapy agents 3 such as cisplatin, and a number of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
This theoretically allows the loop diuretic to penetrate into the cells in higher concentrations, causing more severe damage
It prevents this part of the kidney from reabsorbing sodium and chloride, which increases the amount of fluid you urinate (pee) out
Except in life-threatening situations, avoid this combination
Patients receiving high doses of Here is a list of medications that can potentially cause tinnitus
Cisplatin and nephrotoxic drugs
Cisplatin-induced ototoxicity may be exacerbated by fosfomycin, a phosphonic acid antibiotic that can counteract the effects of cochleotoxic and nephrotoxic medications
These drugs are considered ototoxic
Thus, infusion of furosemide over 5-30 minutes was hypothesized to reduce ototoxicity while not sacrificing diuretic efficacy
In those with liver cirrhosis, drastic electrolyte imbalances can lead to hepatic encephalopathy or coma
Furosemide Injection, USP 10 mg/mL is a sterile, non-pyrogenic solution in vials for intravenous and intramuscular injection
, furosemide, bumetanide) to reduce edema or renal insufficiency in patients with impaired kidney function results in increased urine output
For example, in one study, 67% of the people taking Furosemide at Furosemide may increase the ototoxic potential of aminoglycoside antibiotics, especially in the presence of impaired renal function
[1] Drugs or pharmaceutical agents inducing ototoxicity are regarded as ototoxic medications
Patients receiving high In addition, ototoxicity can be a side effect of furosemide that is, in contrast to aminoglycosides and cisplatin, mostly temporary and rarely permanent
This activity reviews the clinical use There is a risk of ototoxic effects if cisplatin and furosemide are given concomitantly [see Warnings and Precautions (5
Except in life-threatening situations, avoid this combination
As typical representative of loop diuretics ethacrynic acid or furosemide only induces temporary hearing loss, but rarely permanent deafness unless applied in severe acute or chronic renal failure or with other ototoxic drugs
10
LASIX is available as white tablets for oral administration in dosage strengths of 20, 40 and 80 mg
Furosemide is a known ototoxic agent generally causing transient hearing loss but can be permanent
Several less-commonly used loop diuretics also
Furosemide injection is followed by a rapid, but reversible decrease of the Endocochlear potential and eighth nerve action potential with
The ototoxic potential of bumetanide is one eighth that of furosemide
Purpose Because of the serious nature of this adverse drug reaction, the intent of this article is heightening the awareness of furosemide-induced ototoxicity through case presentation
Effects may be temporary or permanent, can affect hearing sensitivity and result in a standard threshold shift
Ethacrynic acid has been known to have a more ototoxic potential than the other members and can lead to permanent sensorineural hearing loss without proper caution of its use, especially concomitantly with another loop
Patients receiving high doses of Effects of antibiotics on hearing loss
These antibiotics are often used to treat serious or life-threatening bacterial infections
Ototoxicity can be affected by a high interindividual variability due to differences in terms of age, gender, genetic factors, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics characteristics, comorbidities, and polytherapy
Common ototoxic drugs include antibiotics like aminoglycosides, 1 loop diuretics 2 such as furosemide, platinum-based chemotherapy agents 3 such as cisplatin, and a number of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
The hearing loss can be reversible or maybe permanent and is often dose–dependent
An aminoglycoside followed by furosemide may increase the risk for ototoxicity
Patients receiving high doses of The ototoxicity of bumetanide and furosemide was compared in Topeka strain guinea pigs pretreated with kanamycin
There is a risk of ototoxic effects if cisplatin and furosemide are given concomitantly [see Warnings and Precautions (5
Monitor renal function
Recent reports have linked aggressive vancomycin dosing strategies to significant risks of nephrotoxicity
It is in the loop diuretic class of drugs
The effect and severity of ototoxicity can vary immensely depending on pharmacological and individual patient risk factors
