Painkillers Could Increase Risk of Hearing Loss

According to a new study published in the American Journal of Medicine, regularly taking aspirin, acetaminophen or other over-the-counter painkillers may increase the risk of hearing loss in men under age 60. The study involved researching 26,000 men every two years for 18 years. Men who regularly took aspirin and were within 50 to 59 years of age were 33 percent more likely to have hearing loss than those who didn't take it often. Men who regularly took aspirin that were under age 50, were found to be 32 percent more likely to develop hearing loss. Men who were 60 or older were 16 percent more likely to develop hearing loss.
