Aminoglycosides not on the NIOSH list

Wondering if anyone knows why Aminoglycosides are not on the NIOSH list since they are known to cause ototoxicity to the unborn fetuses?

what does your hospital do when administering amikacin/tobramycin as a nebulization?
Do the parents/guardians leave the room? what happens to the next patient/family in the next bed?
