Abstract
Retreatment ChemotherapyThis consists in the use of the drugs listed in the lower half of Table 1.17–19,62 It is essential that retreatment be initiated in the hospital. In persons who have never received any of these "secondary" drugs, it is relatively easy to choose two or three previously unused drugs that the patient can tolerate; preferably, only one should be an antibiotic absorbed only by the parenteral route since all these derivatives (KM, VM, CPM) may cause vestibular or auditory toxicity or both, and thus the use of two together tends to increase the risk of ototoxicity.
