Summary
This study tested whether the drug zonisamide could prevent or reduce hearing damage in police officers after exposure to loud gunfire. Only 3 officers enrolled before the study was stopped early. The goal was to see if the drug could limit permanent hearing loss, but no clear conclusions can be drawn due to the small number of participants.
