In Dr. Shore's clinical trial(s), the patient population was kind of small compared to Lenire. Dr. Hubert Lim also said that you really can’t have a true placebo with a device like Lenire because people can tell if they are not getting the electric stimulation. This might be the same with Auricle.

Well, Lenire has got such a bad rep here that people tend to forget it actually helps some people.

Does anyone experience serious brain fog after Lenire?

It's the other way around. Lenire was available in parts of Europe around 2019-2020, so years before America. Yes, frequently checking here is fruitless.

No, I've kind of dropped that. Maybe it had a beneficial effect, especially at a micro-microdosing level, but in the end, my experience with Lenire is what I described above. If I am having a really bad stretch, it is something I can pull out and probably will lower my distress modestly over a...

I think Dr. Shore's placebo was related to the timing.

In Kelly Assouly’s thesis, tinnitus pitch matching was performed, so this approach likely only works for tonal tinnitus—similar to bimodal neurostimulation, as promoted by Brai3n for Lenire in Ghent.

I’m sorry to hear about your experience with Lenire. Lenire caused me serious side effects as well. What did they tell you about whether the device is working properly or not? I imagine they wouldn’t admit if it’s malfunctioning, but they might offer you an alternative device. I’m interested...

This is a BIG problem. Tinnitus UK and the American Tinnitus Association should NOT take money from Lenire and have them sponsor their events and website. They do mention in small print that they don't endorse Lenire but that doesn't help: it still gives credibility to Lenire in most people's...

Completed 15 rounds of HBOT but no improvement of Level 5T in right ear. LLLT Did not help. Now on 4th day of Lenire unit.

There was an interesting article in the Washington Post today about Lenire and the Shore device. It basically said Lenire works for some and the Shore device is similar to Lenire and is waiting for FDA approval.

...to the device’s potential to help us. I also don’t believe that something reaching the market quickly means it is effective. Just look at Lenire. It rushed onto the market, and it is not something I would even consider trying. The same goes for many of the obvious scam treatments...

Does this change your opinion about Lenire at all?

So if Susan Shore is still years away, how was Lenire able to get approved so quickly?

Interesting! Thank you for sharing this article with us.

...as it didn’t provide any noticeable benefit for my tinnitus. For me, it was ultimately a disappointment. However, some people insist that Lenire has been a significant success for them. Purchasing this device is certainly a risk, and the manufacturers make it clear there are no guarantees...

Yes, 80% success as measured in what? What success? Measuring fucking what? 80% got a new job after Lenire? 80% reduced depression? Look at the outcome measures!

...researchers advise against using or participating in studies involving bimodal neuromodulation. An example mentioned in this online article is Lenire: → Zweifel an Lenire: Tinnitus-Experten warnen vor Therapie (tinnitusheilen.de) In my opinion, the researchers at UZH are not fully aware of...

Please remember that a small clinical trial group emphasizes both super responders and super non-responders. Both can skew data in either direction.

Well, many of those who have genuinely disabling tinnitus would come back to report of their success with Lenire (if there was any success to be reported about, that is.) Not everyone of course, but in our experience the severe sufferers are more likely to report back on things. We also...

Lenire uses a Bluetooth system, which is a disaster for a system where the timing must be precise to a millisecond range. This unnecessarily complicated design makes Lenire closer to a teleshopping gadget than a medical device. Comparing Lenire with real bimodal treatment devices makes no sense.

Lenire can NEVER make a THI of 75 to a THI of 15-20. If Tom Blomfield really did have a THI of 75, he probably wouldn't have been able to work for three years and would have sunk into depression. (I tested Lenire here in Munich back in 2021; it did nothing, zero.)

@gracepixie, great to hear that you are improving! I am trying to begin habituation by treating the tones as background noise or personal songs, but it is still a daily struggle. I still track the tones about 90 percent of the time, even when I am outdoors. The high pitched ringing and static...

...is not truly objective. A sound signal, on the other hand, is external and objective—your therapist is not. Your entire point about Lenire actually highlights the issue of poor, dishonest, and non-independent research. If you accept the premise that research for antidepressants is not fully...

They were using WellsCare lasers. Maybe I should strap an IASO Ultra in the neck. If it doesn't work, I saved $4000 compared to Lenire. ;)

The FDA does not care about commercial success. Their primary concern is determining whether the device poses an unacceptable risk of negative impacts to the end user.

I’m confused. How is this any different from what’s been discussed in this entire thread? Also, it seems very expensive if it “only works for some.”

...the FDA. I know it’s a long shot, but if more complaints start coming in, you’d hope the FDA would step in and take action. This could force Lenire to either improve or, at the very least, add a warning to their device, acknowledging the risk of making the condition permanently worse. Right...

If Lenire could be approved with just two clinical trials, Auricle could also be approved. It's non-invasive, meaning the clinical trial requirements are less stringent.

By some accounts, it helps MOST people—I've heard 75%, according to one audiologist. Never forget the sampling bias of getting your reviews from a sick-person forum. Don't get me wrong; I'm still afraid to try it, but thousands of people have now used Lenire, and almost no one on Tinnitus Talk has.

I am slightly cautious about Dr. Hubert Lim, but maybe I don’t know all the facts. He seems proud that Lenire is a “habituation” device, not a treatment to reduce tinnitus. Does he understand the severity of this condition? Will he be pushing for silence?

I just skimmed through the Q&A since it is over four hours long. I watched the section about Susan Shore and Lenire, but I did not hear any updates about the TU Delft Tinnitus Device. Was it mentioned at any point during the Q&A?

There's a user experiences thread with 50+ reports. Most people say it's trash.

Or will the FDA go hard on Dr. Shore's device because Lenire turned out to be harmful to some...

Out of curiosity, how long was the time frame for FDA submission and approval for Lenire? I was just wondering if it's worth comparing the length of time for submission and approval between Lenire and Auricle. This might be hard to do, as we don't know if/when Auricle is going to submit...

...of outcomes is, on the low end, a statement about where they are in the process, and possibly even the announcement of a follow-up study like Lenire had to do. On the optimistic side, it could be a “light at the end of the tunnel” update, with hopes for a 2026 release. If nothing else...

Excuse me, I want to keep the temperature down here, but if @linearb was cured, as I seem to remember reading, why would he want to go and get cured again? I apologize if I have got my wires crossed, i.e. got confused.

To Lenire.. Or not to Lenire. That is the question. Insurance doesn't cover costs so big gamble. Any thoughts?

NPR covered two tinnitus sufferers who are using Lenire, and one of the doctors (the founder of Lenire) discussed how it works and the benefits it brings. This was reported today on the NPR website. It appears miraculous in reducing tinnitus loudness if used regularly, and both sufferers can...

I believe the doctor suggested treating hyperacusis before using Lenire to achieve better results.

Everything under the sun is apparently helping "some people." Lenire, TRT, CBT, craniosacral therapy, diets, random cocktails of vitamins and minerals, the list goes on and on. I personally find "some people are susceptible to treatment A while others are susceptible to treatment B" a far less...

I’d be interested in an analysis of whether this data changes the overall outlook on Lenire as a tool. I also (speculating here) wonder if Dr. Lim’s role with the company may be to continue to develop Lenire to more closely mirror the signal timing that the Shore device uses (i.e., are they /...

PDF attached for anyone who would like to read it. This doesn't include the interactive widgets that were part of the story or some of the graphics formatted properly, but the text is all there. Whether this is our panacea or not, publicity is a good thing.

...make your own bimodal device, and that doesn't mean it will work as well as the Auricle device. It doesn't make it the same. I didn't say Lenire is a placebo effect. I said that at least some will experience an improvement using Lenire due to the placebo effect. One study showed 20% to 25%...

...having an objective tinnitus measurement helps anyone, we only have to look at what happened with Neuromod. Around the time Neuromod released Lenire, the company started posting online videos where patients described waking up to no tinnitus after completing their treatment. Irrespective of...

Different submission requirements entirely. Apples, Oranges.

For those of you who benefited from Lenire, on a scale of 1-10, how much tinnitus reduction did you get on average?

I'm surprised at you!

I would love to be wrong, but I do not think any weakening of the FDA will make much of a difference. I would love to see Lenire, with their fresh influx of funding, $10 million on top of the previous $33 million, license the technology from the University of Michigan for a next generation...

A researcher here thinks the timing precision is maybe not that critical: Tinnitus Models — Learn How Tinnitus Originates

I think it is better to look at relevant research about Lenire itself than to check the economic performance of Audio Noord... My experience with Dr. Kleine Punte is positive. The first appointment was in real life (audiogram, assessing tinnitus severity, general introduction to Lenire and...

I purchased my Lenire device in December 2023 from Gatwick Audiology. Prince, the audiologist, was very nice and believed I was a good candidate for Lenire. My Tinnitus Handicap Score is 76, and my tinnitus is bilateral. I have only a very slight hearing loss in my left ear, which has been...

Listed below are the individual questions. These links are handy when you want to see a specific question answered. A few years ago the device was already on the market - what happened to it? What have you learned from the past few years up until now? Were you expecting those with hyperacusis...

The results show it is effective in reducing tinnitus distress in some patients. No evidence of loudness, so in that respect NO.

...main topics discussed were CBT and tinnitus disorder, both of which were frequently mentioned. A few questions were asked about XEN1011 and Lenire & Dr. Shore devices. Dr. Langguth mentioned that Lenire is a good option for some patients when compared to other alternatives. Did he hint at...

I think I'm going to save my money for the Shore device.

I think Lenire and Dr. Shore's device have very different actual mechanisms and outputs. A friend of mine got great results with Lenire, though; he swore by it. However, I haven’t tried it because the clinical trials were a shambles, and I’m scared that if I do and the Shore device happens to...

I’ve read the recent user experiences of Lenire on Tinnitus Talk and they don’t sound too good. One of them got their Lenire from the Minnesota clinic that I called a few days ago. Seems like a thumbs down at this point.

Auricle is really no different to Lenire. Both are bimodal stimulation. I am lost as to how you have managed to convince yourself that Lenire is just a placebo effect.

Here's a 5 month update, having started Lenire on June 25, 2023. In my previous post, I noted that Lenire had added a new sound to my tinnitus on November 15, 2023. It was a clicking sound and quite annoying. At its worst, it sounded like a Geiger counter next to a radioactive source. Lots of...
