We have known for years of the affects of medications often resulting in, or causing tinnitus.
This article goes on to state, “Our findings suggest that analgesic users may be at higher risk for developing tinnitus and may provide insight into the precipitants of this challenging disorder,” said lead author Sharon Curhan, MD, ScM, of the Brigham’s Channing Division of Network Medicine. “Even though these analgesics are widely available without a prescription, these are still medications, and there are potential side effects. For anyone who is considering taking these types of medications regularly, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional to discuss the risks and benefits and to explore whether there are alternatives to using medication.”
