    No spike on my end. It might be because you are expecting a change. I would stick with for a few weeks at least.

    High Blood Pressure Medication That Does Not Increase Tinnitus

    Looks like Nebivolol also increases my tinnitus. 6th day on and my tinnitus has increased. Anyone have luck with ACE inhibitors? Looks like beta blockers don't work for me. Any insight would be appreciated.

    Tinnitus and Buspar? Please Help!

    Sorry for the delay. I personally would take it a while longer and see if symptoms improve. If not, then stop. If you can't take it, then personally I would taper off over 2-4 weeks. At least you know you tried it and it didn't work for you. One more thing you can check off the list.

    High Blood Pressure Medication That Does Not Increase Tinnitus

    Anyone else have experience taking Metoprolol? Did it spike your tinnitus? I started on a low dose, 12.5 mg, today. I think it's my anxiety playing tricks on me... My tinnitus went up 15 minutes after taking it. If it does increase my tinnitus I might have to try Nebivolol.

    Gabapentin (Neurontin)

    Gabapentin has helped me over the past year but I feel as though I've developed a tolerance to it. I take 400 mg twice a day. I don't want to increase any further as I'm scared of the withdrawal once I come off of it.

    Can Antihistamines Make Your Tinnitus Worse?

    I take Mirtazapine and it actually lowered my tinnitus. Maybe give it a couple or days to adjust? Could be anxiety playing tricks on you. If you can handle it, give it a few days and if it's still spiking, then I would stop.

    Extreme Anxiety & Depression, My Body Is Restless & Fatigued, Antidepressants Make My Tinnitus Worse

    This is just from what I've read and my personal experience. Buspar won't help with panic attacks. It's more for general anxiety disorder. Like when the anxiety is always there. For panic attacks I would go with Xanax, for short term use. With Buspar I also take Mirtazapine. You have to give...

    Anxiety and Antidepressants — Tinnitus from Mirtazapine / Dysfunction of C1, C2 Vertebrae / Stress?

    I feel your pain bro. Try Mirtazapine. It might help you sleep. Anxiety and sleep is the best solution. It won't cure tinnitus but rather help you manage it better.

    Poll: Did Amitriptyline Help Your Tinnitus?

    I was definitely one of the unlucky ones when it comes to Amitriptyline. Heart palpitations, tremors, cell phone vibrating in chest, increased BP, and heart rate. Oh yea dull pain in chest. Ended up in ER to make sure I didn't have a heart attack. I was only on it 8 days. It did help with...

    Diuretic Effectiveness for Cochlear Hydrops — How Quickly Should I Notice Improvement?

    I was diagnosed with the same. I take 25 mg of HCTZ. It's helped. Maybe 50% improvement. It's sad because I might have to stop because I could have gout. They are doing blood tests to determine. You should know within a few days if it helps.

    I don't know if there is any specific symptoms of hydrops outside of tinnitus. I do feel Eustachian tubes feel a little full of pressure and fix that swallowing etc. What has helped me is doing nasal drainage. I feel a slight fullness in the ear with hydrops but to be honest with all my...

    Sleeping Positions Affect My Tinnitus

    For me they put me on HCTZ. It's a blood pressure/diuretic. It's worked fairly well. I would say my tinnitus is 50% lower than it first started. I've read lots of articles that say hydrops is a precursor to get Meniere's disease while others say it's completely separate.

    Mirtazapine Withdrawal — Impact on Tinnitus?

    I take Mirtazapine as well and have been having eye issues. Are you sure the Mirtazapine caused your eye issues? From what I've read a high % of people with visual snow also have tinnitus. Maybe it's not the Mirtazapine? Maybe it is?

    Anxiety and Antidepressants — Tinnitus from Mirtazapine / Dysfunction of C1, C2 Vertebrae / Stress?

    I would comment that it sometimes takes weeks to feel the effect or certain meds. Natural way is the best. It's a numbers game. The risk of tinnitus increasing from certain meds is low. I get when you have tinnitus, even a 1% chance of it increasing is a huge risk we aren't willing to take but...
