Happy "Wellness Wednesday"! ๐ Did you know that April is Ototoxicity Awareness Month?
If you take daily prescriptions, making smart medical choices is essential for your sensory health. But what exactly is "ototoxicity"? It literally translates to "Oto = Ear" and "Toxic = Poison"
It refers to the way certain medications can cause ringing in the ears (tinnitus), dizziness, or even hearing loss Throughout this month, we are partnering with Dr. Umez at Gattis Pharmacy in the Hutto Medical Plaza to help you protect your hearing from medication-induced damage.
Stay tuned every Wednesday this month to learn more, and remember to always review your medications with your pharmacist! ๐๐
