Tinnitus Ringing In Ears

Please can somebody tell me if this blood thinner can cause tinnitus? A few doctors i've spoke to say it shouldn't but it's only been while i've been on this medication? Almost 3 months now. Hope someone can help x ## I am also experiencing constant ringing in my right ear since starting Xarelto six weeks ago for a PE. The nurse practitioners at the hospital clinic I am going to are downplaying the significance of this apparent side effect. But it is real, and only started once I began the medication. The sooner I get off this stuff, the better. Can't wait. ## Hello, Sarah and Steve! How are you both? I'm very sorry about the problem you're both having. No, tinnitus is not listed as possible side effect by the FDA. However, this medication does risk causing c...

I also have the strange sensation of moveing my head guickly like the guy who asked about any drug interaction of remeron and Nuvigil, Please somebody help? ## Hello, Don! How are you doing? Has anything improved, yet? It sounds like one or both may be causing some vertigo and tinnitus, the two often go hand in hand. Learn more Remeron details here. If it got worse, when you increased the Remeron, then that means it could be the culprit. Have you contacted your doctor, again? It must might not be the right medication for you. ## I have been taking Remeron for about 15 years and never noticed ringing in my ears until I started on pain me...

Has anyone suffered from ringing in ears from Contrave? I'm going insane :(. but losing weight :) ## Hello, Jojo! How are you?

Has anybody experienced buzzing or ringing in their ears from Cymbalta? It's called tinnitus. ## It is possible, but not common, and when someone does experience it as a side effect from Cymbalta, it usually goes away in a few weeks, since such side effects are transient, and tend to go away, once your body gets used to the medication, according to FDA reports. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, appetite loss, weight changes, and laryngitis. Are you on any other medications? ## Change your anti depressant. I have Tinnitus but not from any drugs. Whenever you “ experience” a symptom of a side effect, it needs to be changed. Usually the older antis are the better ones. I only notice my tinnitus when it’s very quiet. There are also soft noise ...

Doctor put me on Metformin, two days after I started experiencing severe stomach pain and tinnitus in one ear. Went to ER, told it was side effects of this drug. I stopped taking Metformin. The stomach pain stopped but I still after 7 days have the tinnitus in my ear. I have read several forums that talk about ringing in the ears while on this medication. I started taking B12 to see if that would help but nothing so far. Has anyone experienced hearing loss after or while taking Metformin? My doctor never told me of this side effect. I think it should be shown as a definite side effect of this drug. ## Hello, Bill! How are you? Yes, those can be side effects of this medication, however, they can also be side effects of uncontrolled diabetes and high blood pressure, as reported by the NIH...

I was perscibed 30 mgs. of remeron and 200mgs. of zoloft. Then was told to increase the dose of remeron to 45mgs. the ringing in the ears got worse. It is a loud pierceing wine, ## Hello, Don! How are you doing? Sorry about the tinnitus. Has it eased up, at all, yet? It is difficult to say what might be causing it, it is often a side effect of medications, but could also be entirely unrelated. Have you consulted your doctor? When was the last time you had a hearing exam?

Hello to anyone interested. I have been taking Xarelto for 3 months. 20mg once a day for DVT and P.E's post knee replacement. Started searching for possible effects of the drug and have found that many people seem to have similar side effects to mine. First surprise was sudden nose bleeds. Was warned that I may get a rash or itches, and I certainly do. Bruising for no apparent reason also and increased back pain (although to be fair I do have severe spinal issues) but probably the most annoying thing is very loud ringing in my ears (tinnitus), more so in one side. I'm pretty sure that we are not just imagining this stuff folks, and for those professionals that downplay the tinnitus, it is no joke! It is making life quite difficult. Head aches (some quite severe) are also a probl...

Hello. I had to take escitalopram for my bipolar disorder. The ringing in my ears started right away. I only took 20mg total over the course of 4 days and stopped, been off it 3 days now and the ringing is still going strong. I am very afraid that this will be permanent. I never had ear problems before. ## I was taking Trintillex antidepressant. 7 weeks started to hear higher tones tinnitus which l have already. Antidepressants just made it worse but luckily it stopped. It may take a bit longer best advice get this out of your system if your able to. Possibly try switching antidepressants it seems like finding the right antidepressants are hit and miss. Everyone's different Good .Luck. Stay positive!

I am currently using Vertin 16 mg for ringing in my ears as I have had tinnitus for many years. I have meniere's disease in my left ear and a loss of hearing in both the left and right ears (to 75% and 40% respectively). I wear hearing aids in both ears. How do I reduce the problem of tinnitus and are there any other alternatives to Vertin?

I have been taking doxycycl hyc 100mg for about 2 yrs now. I have also had ringing of the ear about that long. Just wondering if the doxycycl hyc could be the cause of my ringing of the ear? ## Hi Kim, According to Harvard Medical School, Doxycycline is one of many drugs that can cause or worsen tinnitus. Apparently it damages the nerve cells/hairs that send and receive signals to and from the brain. You can read more about that in the article linked below: health.harvard.edu/newsletters/Harvard_Womens_Health_Watch/2011/September/tinnitus-ringing-in-the-ears-and-what-to-do-about-it I hope this helps to answer your question!

I am geting some sounds frequently in the right ear. Dr.prescribed folloring medicines for the ear problem. L Montus tablets, Cognix Plus and Verteze-8. Kindly inform the useage & side effects. ## Levocetirizine is an antihistamine, side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and headache. Montelukast is used to treat asthma and allergies. The side effects are, therefore, very similar. Cognix Plus is commonly used to treat ringing in the ears and tinnitus. I cannot, however, find any more information on what it contains. I am also not finding anything listed under the name Verteze. Can you tell me what country these are from? That may help me narrow it down. ## I take L-Montus For Cold some times not regularly Please tell me its side effect ## my son was prescribed monte...

I have been using this spray for almost 2 mo. and have developed ringing in my ears(tinnitus) so I stopped it and went to an ear,nose &throat Dr. who told me to go on a low salt diet and resume the Veramyst. Haven't been able to find the tinnutis as a side effect of this drug so I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem with it ## yes, been taking for 1 week now (2 doses each nostril, 1xday) and I've just developed really bad tinnutis in both ears about 20mins after the last dosing. I've never had that before so I'm assuming it is a side-effect. ## Yes, I have had tinnitus for many years due to a bad fall skiing.

im looking for info on a large capsule shaped pill that is a pinkish, orange. it either says L-FLAY or L-FLAV ## found it in my house ## Lipoflavonoid ## I use this pill 2 3x a day to control the ringing in my ears... Works for me but cost allot ## @concerned, I can confirm that the pill in question is indeed Lipo-flavenoid. Based on my research, Lipo-flavenoid is a proprietary, over-the-counter, nutrient formula created in 1961, by DSE Healthcare Solutions, which is claimed by the manufacturer to help combat tinnitus (sounds in the ears). It has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for this purpose.

Where can I find the side effects for Lipoflavonoid? ## Since this is a natural supplement, not a prescription medication, or considered a type of drug, the side effects are not really evaluated and listed anywhere. ## "Lipoflavonoid is an over-the-counter (OTC) supplement marketed for Meniere's disease with its symptoms of feeling ear fullness, dizziness, nausea and "ringing in the ears" called tinnitus.
