I am getting a PICC tomorrow and am only going on Zoysn. Usually I do that and tobra but the last time I had ringing in the ears so they stopped the tobra and do not want me to try it this time. Is there no other medicine that does the same job as tobra? I just feel that I won't get better with only one drug

I'm not sure about other med options for you, but I know a lot of times my docs may do a week with just two meds and if my numbers haven't improved very much they'll add my third med I'm usually on. I'd give it a week and see what happens, or ask them what your other options are.

Sue, I'm in the same situation. I've had reactions to enough spectrums of abx that I only can do Zosyn, Meropenem and Doripenum. Obviously the last 2 are in the same family and you wouldn't do both of them at the same time. I used to piggy back w/ Tobra and had the ear problem, also. I've piggy backed with Cipro but developed a reaction to that, so last time I just did Doripenem and didn't feel like I sprang back as well.

Keep a close eye on the Tobi, altough I have not seen anyone comment abt this but lost of hearing is a side effect with the TOBI I used it aggressively in the early 90's I got fitted for hearing aids abt 2000 who knew? I just kept saying what to everyone? or answering a question compeletly different from what the answer shd of been. I do not want to alram anyone, that is not my point. But I still get the ringing occassioanlly. I've used Cipro as a second, drug occassionally. I've never just done one. But maybe that is just what you need right now.
