My son was put on a very strong IV antibiotic when he was 2 years old for pneumococcal pneumonia. At 4 years old we were told he had a moderate hearing loss. The doctors at that time said it could be a side effect of medications but that he was not given the medication that caused hearing loss. We were never notified of this side effect, and have learned today (he's now 8) that medication WAS given to him. We've also learned that medication is no longer used. I need for someone to let me know how to find out if there is a class action lawsuit against the pharmaceutical company. He needs two hearing aids at a cost of $2500 each. These will never be covered by most health insurance plans. The medication he was given is Gentamycin(spelling?)
