Why Does Baclofen Calm Down My Tinnitus? Why Does My Tinnitus Fluctuate When Moving My Neck?

[Tarek Eisa]

Hey,

Does anyone know why Baclofen calms my tinnitus down?

Also, when I move my neck right or left I feel my tinnitus fluctuates?

Thanks.

Anyone?

Possibly because it activates the GABA receptors-https://news.berkeley.edu/2011/09/12/tinnitus-discovery-could-lead-to-new-ways-to-stop-the-ringing/ - I have the same experience with Baclofen, was on it for another condition when I got tinnitus, if I take extra it lowers the ringing. However there's other users here who found coming off Baclofen got rid of or lowered their tinnitus. It's maybe like Valium; good in the short term, less good long term.

Why are you taking Baclofen? Do you use it to treat your tinnitus?

 

[Tarek Eisa]

I took it because I had anxiety.

Baclofen does it work with your T now or it's not ?

Like I said, It seems to be quieter when I take extra. When I omit the medication altogether it gets louder.
