Talk:Neomycin

FYI, reference number 4, the one that is supposed to be citing doctors not recommending Neomycin is now a spam link. Needs to be changed. I would but my knowledge of wiki editing ends here...as you probably can tell from this not being signed with a username or timestamp. ///Anonymous Coward —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.194.194.23 (talk) 05:40, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

The structure of neomycin I believe is wrong. The deoxystreptamine should not have an oxygen apart of its ring structure at the 2 position. Please check on it. Mc schafer (talk) 03:52, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Hypercholesterolemia
How does it help prevent high cholesterol??? {Pelirojopajaro (talk) 03:53, 18 January 2009 (UTC)}

neomycin and (high frequency) hearing loss
the article should reflect this. there are various papers that can be cited. e.g., "Tatsuya Yamasoba MD, and Katsunori Tsukuda MD, Ototoxicity after use of neomycin eardrops is unrelated to A1555G point mutation in mitochondrial DNA" Journal of Laryngology & Otology (2004), 118:7:546-550. Ear drops containing neomycin only rarely cause ototoxicity. The authors report on three patients with a tympanic membrane perforation who developed severe ototoxicity after use of eardrops containing 0.35 per cent neomycin. Mitochondrial DNA analysis revealed that there was no A1555G point mutation in these patients. This finding indicates that application of low concentration neomycin to the middle ear can cause severe inner ear damage even in humans who are not hyper-susceptible to aminoglycosides.

i don't want to edit this article because I don't know who "owns" it and would object to having an alternative viewpoint presented. Lucky dog (talk) 04:26, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

No Side-Effects?
Some are major, it seems, but no mention of side-effects in this article. Is it possible to 'put in requests' for help? MyshkinIncarnate (talk) 13:13, 9 August 2016 (UTC)

Reorganization needed (Feb 2021)
I'm probably stating the obvious, but the article would benefit from a "re-org." My suggested structure for a revised article would be:

Pdanese (talk) 04:06, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * History/discovery
 * medical uses
 * laboratory uses
 * composition, biosynthesis and mechanism of action
 * Go for it Does it have Multiple_issues? Be bold.  azwaldo (talk) 17:16, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
