Vestibular toxicity following netilmicin therapy in the neonatal period. 1986

A M Hauch, and B Peitersen, and E Peitersen

Thirty-seven children treated with netilmicin during the neonatal period were seen at follow-up at the age of 2-4 years to investigate for possible vestibular damage caused by netilmicin therapy. No definite vestibular damage could be found in these 37 patients, including three patients in whom greatly elevated serum concentrations of netilmicin had been measured. The present study confirms previous findings in adults showing a low ototoxicity of netilmicin.
