Dear Kristen,
I think you should have your daughter checked by her family doctor to document if there is a problem. I don't know what prophylactic antibiotics your daughter is taking, but hearing loss is generally not a problem with the more common prophylactic medications. If you are still concerned, you could ask your pharmacist to check out the medications you are using in detail. I looked in the PDR at didn't see hearing loss associated with the medications commonly prescribed. The information provided in this forum is presented for general educational purposes only. Specific questions you have pertaining to your health should always be directed to your personal physician.
