アブストラクト | Hearing loss is defined as a decrease in the ability to perceive sounds which can occur suddenly or gradually and affects one ear or both. It is related to various etiologies, in particular drugs. The identification of all drugs that could be associated with hearing loss is essential for the patients' life quality. The objective of our study was to identify signals of hearing loss involving drugs approved in the last 20 years. The occurrence in association with drugs known for their ototoxicity was also analyzed. We used a case/non-case method in the French Pharmacovigilance Database (FPVD). The cases were reports of hearing loss in the FPVD between January 2007 and August 2017. Non-cases were all reports over the same period. We calculated the reporting odds ratio (ROR) with 95% confidence intervals. Among the 555 reports of hearing loss, significant RORs were found for 68 drugs. The main therapeutic classes implicated were antineoplastic agents (n = 240), systemic anti-infective agents (n = 182), immunosuppressants (n = 42) loop diuretics (n = 26), and salicylate analgesics (n = 26). We found signals of hearing loss with azacitidine, vaccines and nevirapine, immunosuppressants such as leflunomide, and biotherapies such as panitumumab and vandetanib. Prescribers should be informed about the potential associations with all these drugs. The role of the pathology itself and the known ototoxic drugs that can be associated do not allow to conclude definitively. Audiograms for the early detection of hearing loss induced by drugs known to be ototoxic are rarely carried out. Preventive treatments exist and must be considered. |
