Aminoglycoside antibiotics are among the oldest antibacterial agents. The experience of clinical use of streptomycin has about 60 years, the same amount of
time known for its most serious side effect – cochleo- and vestibulotoxicity with a frequent transition to irreversible sensorineural hearing loss or vestibulopathy.
These effects, as is currently known, are caused by almost all aminoglycosides [1].
