Oxazepam

[sandra72]

Is oxazepam not good for tinnitus? I have had an anxiety disorder for a while and I had oxazepam from the GP. I'm only trying to take it if it's not going anymore.

But now I've been bothered by pulsatile tinnitus for 2 weeks. It is especially present in the morning when waking up. It makes me very nervous. It came after my vacation and flying, I did a lot of the valsalva maneuver. I was not sure if this could be angry.

In the beginning, I also had this whoosh sound in my left ear but after a while it pulled it away again. When I bring my ear to my shoulder or turn my head it becomes a lot harder.

Do you think it will get better or go away? And is it safe to take oxazepam?

It appears that the number of people who report T is pretty low. I've been using this site a lot since getting an infection about a month ago and having to go on lots of meds and my rule of thumb is to try to find drugs where fewer than .5% of people report tinnitus.

Case in point, I took a med only after looking through this site with my doctor and choosing a medication that had very low reports of tinnitus. After a few weeks my T is only slightly elevated but tolerable.

Benzos (which is what Oxazepam is) are generally pretty safe for very short term use, and become increasingly problematic and dangerous the longer you take them.

I had a ENT prescribe that to me in the past for tinnitus. It was called Serax. I just remember it came in capsules.
