List of Drugs That Cause Tinnitus
The drugs that cause tinnitus are describe as ototoxic, which means that they are harmful to the cochlear or vestibular (balance) structures in the ear. If you experience ringing in the ears or related sounds after having medications for a particular condition, it is recommended that you see your doctor as soon as you can. If after some tests it is found out that the medication is the cause of your ear ringing, then your doctor can advise you to stop having the medication.
