Why don't many doctors enforce the dangers of potential hearing loss from medicines?

Home More advice Health

Many medications are ototoxics. I told two of my doctors that medicine literature and complains online point out how you will potentially become deaf or develop uncurable tinnitus and both kind of laugh at me. One told me to stop reading online medical information and the other told me to stay with the medicine. The medicine is Furosimide also known as lasix. Is a diuretic and if I don't take it I may become very ill. There is another medication that I can use to replace it but the doctors aren't taking me serious.
