Thank you doctor,
Yes, Amikacin has been confirmed as the cause of hearing loss. My father had 28 Amikacin 500 mg injection. He feels like having tinnitus while using earphones. When my father had urine culture, the result came out as positive. So, the doctor prescribed Amikacin 500 mg injection. After some days, my father started complaining of hearing problem. We visited an ENT specialist and got it confirmed due to Amikacin injections. I have attached all the reports.
