I take it, and others. In the last few years, I have hearing loss and tinnitus. I Have seen hearing specialist had hearing test done. It's the meds and a part of aging (for me).

I am in a similar position to @A MyEpilepsyTeam Member in not being familiar with it. Her suggestion is also of value: search online for information about it as well as your pharmacist or pharmacy and/or other medical professionals, who might have information on it. May God be with you in this learning about it.

I've never used the drug.

Either Google it or call your pharmacy. They would have the most up-to-date information.

I've taken zonegran in the past and didn't notice that issue. The only noticeable side effect for me was hair loss. I normally have really thick hair and it thinned it out a lot. I don't recall any hearing loss with it at all though. I was working at a doctor's office at the time, so I would have noticed any hearing issues. Some people have different side effects though, so maybe it just didn't cause that problem with me. I'd ask the neurologist about it.
