Altho theyre possibly related, I wouldnt worry about the ringing per se, but more the possible hearing loss down the road with the Hydrocodone + Acetaminophen meds. That side effect wasnt well known until the media blitz about Rush Limbaugh, and the way Ive read about not only him but others simply "waking up one day and couldnt hear" was an eye-opener for alot of people Im sure.
Shoreline have you heard anything about Oxycodone related to this? Ive done another websearch and every page I checked out had no information relating the two, and wound up pointing back to the Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen combination. Would it be possible for someone to put up a link if they find information about it, since its health-related?
Im still curious if those articles someone mentioned about Oxycodone possibly having the same side effect, specified if it was in combination with the Acetaminophen (Percocet, Roxicet, etc.) that caused hearing loss? Or has anyone heard of anything about Oxycodone by itself causing hearing loss?
