this list contains almost every substance available at the pharmacy. It is not relevant without the dosage information. For example, Ibuprofen, which is often listed in the potential ototoxic drugs lists won't do anything to you with normal dosages. I checked with my physician because he prescribed me this. I am pretty sure aspartam may only be potentially ototoxic at a high dose, which is not the case in soda.
I'm not going to avoid every drug on the list or I'd never get help for my other problems. I was reading through it and was surprised aspartame was on it. Figured no one scrolls down past the medicine section.
Some people on here don't take NSAIDs because they're ototoxic. The safety of aspartame is often called into question. It's enough for me but I don't have a soda/gum addiction.
If you're talking about addiction that's another debate :) I also believe addiction to soda can be dangerous, and not only for the potential ototoxicity of aspartam
