> The ENT's say the antidepressants didn't cause the hearing loss. I strongly disagree. After the 1st hearing loss 4 years ago I was off of ssri's. Then 4 years later I go back on ssri & get the hearing loss again. That IS NO COINCIDENCE !I encountered the same experience with ENTs when I saw them regarding my hearing loss which turned out to be due to Remeron. They tagged me with a bogus cochlear menieres diagnosis.
Initially, I thought I was being treated that way due to having a psych label. But people on pharmalot who developed a hearing loss from an antibiotic (sorry I forgot the name) reported similar experiences.
My psychiatrist also denied the Remeron caused the hearing loss.
For those of you who question what I am saying, when I made a mistake in reducing my Remeron dosage and took too much, my hearing worsened.
Anyway rickf, I am sorry you have joined the hearing loss and the doctors don't believe me club.
