Hey baby boomers: Now you can get hearing loss from taking Cialis, Levitra and Viagra!
Oct 22nd, 2007 | By Michael L. Saile, Jr., Esq. | Category: Blogs, Dangerous ProductsWhat’s next? The FDA asked manufacturers of these drugs to revise product labeling after it was reported sudden hearing loss, sometimes accompanied by ringing in the ears and dizziness.The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved labeling changes for erectile dysfunction (ED) drugs in the class that includes Cialis, Levitra, and Viagra, to display more prominently the potential risk of sudden hearing loss, and to guide consumers on what to do if they experience sudden problems with their hearing.
Although no causal relationship has been demonstrated, the strong relationship between the use of these drugs and sudden hearing loss in these cases warrants revisions to the product labeling for this drug class. Patients taking Cialis, Levitra, or Viagra who experience sudden hearing loss should immediately stop taking the drug and seek prompt medical attention.
