There is no unbiased research. Neuromod claims 85% of users get significant improvement from Lenire. Based on reports on Tinnitus Talk that is laughable - it is more like 30% who are a bit vague on how much it is helping. I would be less negative if it was not so expensive or if Lenire would...

How can Lenire expect that anyone has $4,000.00 + just laying around (with no insurance coverage) to allocate for such negligible results?

All these Lenire studies have one thing in common. That is, they cannot distinguish differences between the results of various arms. If they could show that one arm was statistically better than another, it would be conclusive proof that it is doing something. Instead, no matter how different...

volunteer mentor on MayoClinic site said Lenire Neuromod got FDA approval. "Bimodal neuromodulation significantly reduces tinnitus" HOPEFUL

What would help me more? Visiting an Astrologer or getting Lenire? I know for sure that an Astrologer would not charge $4,000.00.

The reason it got approval is not because it is effective - but because it is harmless. Still scandalous that Neuromod will sell this as proof their rubbish Lenire works.

Yeah, I don't think you need to commit to Lenire at all. I'd be willing to try it if I could tolerate it, but just last night, I tried a bimodal stimulation YouTube video for tinnitus relief and got almost immediate discomfort from the high-pitched tones. Kind of nuts that it could be so...

Wasn't the University of Minnesota device similar to Lenire? Sound with the electrical impulses to the tongue? I would assume it would have similar results as Lenire.

Placebo effect is also some effect.

I hope you are right, although I think that next year this time there will still be nothing. Also since you seem to have knowledge on Dr. Shore's work, can you tell me how they made it so that the control group didn't know they were receiving the treatment?

Dear @Tryn2BHopeful, thank you for your question. I started with Lenire on December 28th, so I'm about four weeks into this treatment. I experience less stress. It is like my tinnitus bothers me less.

Does anyone have an appointment at one of the US clinics yet? The Lenire website says availability will begin in April.

It seems Auricle will be a superior device to Lenire, but Neuromod seems light-years ahead as an established company vs. Auricle.

Bluetooth suffers from audio latency up to 20x that of wired headphones. This can increase further depending on range and external factors such as interference from other devices. Not great when your device requires precise timing.

...a second thought. Plus, it’s essentially the closest treatment option we have to look forward to right now, minus a few other ventures. Lenire was significantly less successful than anticipated. The Auricle device has the science and minds behind it. I understand the frustration - believe me...

The reason that Lenire took so long is that the FDA asked them to do another trial. That won't be the case for Dr. Shore. And of course Neuromod used their trial as a marketing opportunity by conveniently deciding to not use a placebo for their trials!

...I call you a 'nutcase,' and you respond by calling me one! What are you? Five years old? And that study you sent me was about as good as the Lenire study. No placebo. I think you are proving my point. As others have pointed out, your method is nothing more than residual inhibition. It's...

What non-tinnitus related side effects does Lenire potentially have? Has anyone experienced neuropathy from it, especially in the face?

I think the main differences are: 1) Timing. Timing is the most important in bimodal stimulation. Lenire might just have bad timings or a delay due to Bluetooth. 2) Sounds. Lenire plays keyboard-like sounds with rain-like white noise in the background. What's the point of having any timings...

So, is the Lenire thing legit or should I just keep on scrollin'?

Lenire is designed to assist individuals with moderate tinnitus that has been present for a short duration. However, the audiologist in Beverly Hills is apprehensive about accepting patients like me and @RunningMan because he worries that we might complain about its performance. He is very...

Hey @BTaylor12. Hubert Lim is Chief Scientist Officer of Neuromod (Lenire) and also Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Otolaryngology at University of Minnesota. So there is a link between both parties.

That's strange they would say that. I spoke to Sven yesterday at the TRI conference in Dublin and he specifically mentioned how his device is different from Lenire. I shot a short video in fact, which we'll publish soon in the TRI thread and on our video channels.

Aside from the rigorous basic research that went into Shore’s device as opposed to a throwing spaghetti at the wall approach with Lenire, the idea of Lenire is to make the fusiform cells all hyperactive so that the tinnitus area isn’t so distinct, while Shore’s device aim to lessen the...

Maybe Neuromod had an idea of what the result would be if they did.

...between a PROFIT driven company and a credit worthy researcher genuinely trying to help people by developing technology that works. Lenire have to be given credit for the way they have made their device commercially successful. I don't know who is backing Dr. Shore's device but clearly some...

You and I have both been her for a while, but I forgot -- do you have hearing loss? I am under the impression that Lenire won't really help those with significant hearing loss, but maybe I'm wrong? Trying to decide if it's worth the $4,000 gamble.

Please excuse me, I don't understand your post at all. What exactly does this mean for Auricle's FDA process? Does the judging start from scratch? In a stricter mode? Thank you.

The similarities are VERY superficial. I wouldn't compare the two just because they are both bimodal stimulation.

Does Lenire work for those with pain hyperacusis + sound reactive tinnitus? Or is it not suitable?

I am getting my Lenire in 2 weeks! Can't wait! The clinical trials appear to have tested this thing with thousands of patients. Are they lying about the results?

Please tell me: How in the world does a product such as Lenire get FDA approval if it doesn’t work?

...already habituated for many years to the milder garden variety. I was hoping my prior post in this thread would be the last but clearly the Lenire saga is continuing with negative experiences like yours. Your summary has raised some important questions, which I hope you won't mind me asking...

For medical devices, the regulator is there to ensure patient safety. Auricle do have (supposed) clinical proof the device works and has no major side effects. I’m not a Regulatory Affairs expert, but I’d be surprised if any additional work was requested.

Lenire didn't take long to get to US market after FDA approval; I think it was about a year? Auricle is seeming like mid-2025.

If Dr. Shore's Device that, let's say, yields real improvement, is released next year, will it render Lenire as obsolete as a B & W TV Set?

I give Lenire 1 year before they go out of business from exorbinant costs vs. zero results. So far they only have two outlets in Indiana.

To TomK: The most valuable feature of this Forum is that Lenire has already been reported by many to be no more effective than a placebo.

...there are ups and downs, some sessions might even spike it. It's enough to get a taste of what bimodal stimulation could do, but not enough to not call myself disabled by tinnitus. But maybe now like 60% disabled instead of 80%. There was a lady who said she got trigeminal neuralgia from...

Have there been any studies or publications showing which types of tinnitus have better results from Lenire? For example, when speaking to Prof. De Ridder on tDCS, he said those with unstable continuously changing tinnitus see better results than tinnitus which continuously stays the same. tDCS...

Yes, some users are saying Lenire makes a difference. I know. Just like there are people claiming tinnitus ear drops or tinnitus skin patches make their tinnitus better.

I think you are trying to sew doubts about Dr. Shore's device and make up stories, much like you did on the Lenire device. People can look at your posts and see that for themselves. You called Lenire "like using Russian roulette," among other overly negative posts. Lenire worked for some on...

And yet they approve something like Lenire, and not for it being safe alone. No corruption involved!

Lenire is pretty much hot garbage. Neuroplasticity is something that humans lose with time but slightly, otherwise you would never be able to learn anything new at an older age which isn’t true. And, if Dr. Susan Shore is correct about us basically having misfiring neurons - all we need to do...

Dr. Shore mentioned communicating with the FDA throughout the clinical trial process, so one would hope she followed the FDA's guidelines. In some articles, she has been quoted as saying her focus is now on commercialization, so ideally, another clinical trial won’t be necessary. However, based...

...such a good idea. Please read my thread: Keeping Things Simple with Tinnitus. I believe you have done the right thing deciding not to try Lenire. Someone with noise-induced tinnitus contacted me a while back asking for my advice about this tinnitus treatment. I advised them not to try it as...

I certainly hope you are right. I am not an expert but I agree choosing Bluetooth was idiotic, adding expense and complexity.

...submitted their research (funded and carried out by themselves), it ticked th FDA boxes, they paid their fee - and the FDA judged that Lenire is actually not a danger to use; nobody is going to blame the FDA for getting killed or brain damage by Lenire because it just has no capability to do...

I don't care if it looks like Satan's asshole as long as it works lol. I think most people would agree. Lenire was all bang and no buck.

It must be helping some people. I hope audiologists aren’t just recommending something that doesn’t work, though I completely appreciate it doesn’t work for all.

...not cynically. I will be watching Tinnitus Talk to see people's experience with the actual Auricle device; just as instructive as there aren't 100's of people flooding online forums saying Lenire helped them, I will gauge the responses here on whether the expense of this device is worth it...

...might look like, as there has not been any real improvement so far. I am also worried about the lack of promising treatments. Options like Lenire or medications feel like risky gambles, and I am holding on to a small bit of hope for the Susan Shore device. However, I do not know when it...

If money was no object, would you try Lenire as soon as possible or wait for Dr. Shore's device?

So many questions can be answered by just spending even a little bit of time searching the forum. And yes, Lenire is a scam. Susan Shore's device is the shining light in our lives at the moment.

I think a 510(k) submission will be likely but far as I know we have no confirmation of that. Superficially (very superficially) it could be considered similar enough to Lenire to get the 510(k) distinction.

...sample of tinnitus sufferers. If you included more people with greater hearing loss, for example, the numbers would likely look less favorable. Based on all the feedback from Lenire users, it was less effective than these numbers coming out of the Shore study. Lenire User Experiences and...

...everyday noises and isn’t maskable anymore by environmental noises. This bugs me the most because before it was easily maskable. Is it possible that Lenire can reverse the threshold shift done by the SSRI? So that the tinnitus can be masked again? What exactly is the success Lenire achieves?
