I take Ibuprofen for headaches, just a normal dose, and I can't say it has done anything to my ears... I guess. Your mileage may vary. The combination of severe tinnitus and headache is just unbearable. I can't do anything about tinnitus, but at least I can fight off a headache.

This is weird, right? I find it diminishes the volume of T.

...help. Last 2 weeks my tinnitus has gotten crazy loud - mostly in my left ear. I went to the doctor last Friday who pointed out to me Ibuprofen can cause deafness and tinnitus. I'd taken them for a week recently due to a sports injury. I feel like I may have a slight loss of hearing in my...

I have been experiencing tinnitus for 5 days now. It came on suddenly March 10 when I woke up accompanied by dizziness. The tinnitus is a high pitched (though not on one pitch) white noise in both ears. It affected my hearing the first day or so-music was hard to listen to-distorted. I can more...

Aspirin is way riskier than Ibuprofen IMO. But if you think Nimesulide is better, give it a go. Although you'll probably have a harder time getting it prescribed because doctors are reluctant to be told what to do lmao.

...dose. The very first day I took it, that evening I started hearing a ringing/humming/buzzing in my head. I also had taken one 200mg Ibuprofen that night for a headache which I thought was a side effect of the medicine. I was aware of a minor interaction (increased GI bleeding risks)...

Ibuprofen, especially in high doses, has been identified as a cause for tinnitus. It may have triggered mine. At orthopedic doctor's orders, I was taking 1600 mg/day for nearly a month.

Ibuprofen is safe enough brother, I would worry more about the COVID-19.

...relatively new, a study shows that consistent use can increase tinnitus emergence by about 20%. Formerly, it was thought only Aspirin and Ibuprofen could cause tinnitus, but now it's thought Paracetamol may be quite ototoxic and can cause tinnitus. If you have tinnitus caused by...

...my focus was set on my other symptoms at the time. On that same trip, I took a really bad fall. It hurt quite a bit and I had to take Ibuprofen (Advil for American folks) for a couple of days - probably about 7 pills of 400 mg over the course of 4 days - never more than 3 pills on a single...

Ibuprofen.

...pm for sleep and can’t Benadryl help you sleep also? My audiologist I use to work with said, that I could take those just go by the directions and not take to much , because I thought Tylenol, ibuprofen , aspirin and all that was otoxic, but I guess just follow the directions don’t take...

Took Ibuprofen since I am sick, did not spike my tinnitus, thank the lord

so as the title says, iv been dealing with really loud t for 5 days from taking too much ibprofen. is there anything i can do now to stop this?..since this has only been 5 days is there any medication i could take to improve the loud crazy noise in my ears? my whole lifehas turned upside down...

I'd put my money on the Ibuprofen. It drives up TNF alpha = inflammation.

Wow. I also take generic Lamictal and have been for over 20 years due to a seizure I had. I was taking Ibuprofen also. I stopped the Ibuprofen. The doctor says to still take Lamictal.

I take Ibuprofen and Aspirin with no effect on my tinnitus.

There are some threads on the subject, just put "Ibuprofen" in the search bar. For how long did you use Ibuprofen? A single dose means 400mg daily right?

Apparently Ibuprofen makes the symptoms worse. I read some French neurologist warned about possibility that Ibuprofen is behind severe cases.

Acetaminophen ought to be ok, but ibuprofen is listed on the ototoxic medication list and there are also many horror story posts about it on this forum. https://www.tinnitustalk.com/search/4150492/?q=ibuprofen&o=relevance

i just realize that on the 10 of jan 7 days before my symptoms started i took a 600 ml pill for my back i always for many years have token that same dose for 3 days at a moth for my cycles with no prob for the pass 14 years

I know hydrocodone&ibuprofen are both Ototoxic but those were the pain meds I was given. Any 1 worse than the other? I've been on ibuprofen

Codeine doesn't affect my tinnitus. But neither does Ibuprofen or Aspirin which are drugs with very bad rep among tinnitus sufferers.

This is really encouraging. Thank you very much for this post!

The severe cases are multifactorial but any NSAID (not just Ibuprofen) can make it worse than it would otherwise be. I would like to read a link suggesting they are *the* cause of severe cases unless I am reading what you wrote wrong.

I took a total of four Ibuprofen 200mg x 2 and then again. My headache was really bad though. My headache gradually got better. I think the ibuprofen helped but I wouldn't take it for chronic pain though. I doubt it would help anyway.

Neither ibuprofen nor vinpocetine are permanently ototoxic. Anyone who has told you that ibuprofen is permanently ototoxic is ignorant of how ototoxicity works. If taking ibuprofen causes tinnitus, discontinuing ibuprofen will stop it. If taking vinpocetine causes you tinnitus, then...

I was given local and general anaesthetic, ibuprofen drip, then paracetamol and ibuprofen tablets and at one point a form of morphine for pain management

Oh you already delivered. Great! Congrats! Glad you got along with softer pain medication. I think ibuprofen is pretty safe, especially in lower doses. Paracetamol is apparently even safer. But I am pretty sure you'll be alright with the ibuprofen you took.

I took 2400 mg of ibuprofen and have had tinnitus since, it's been over a month since I stopped taking it. Still hoping it'll improve.

Hi all, does anybody know if taking one 200mg of ibuprofen will make my tinnitus worse? I took one yesterday due to tooth pain and instantly regretted it as i know ibuprofen can cause tinnitus. I noticed it was slightly louder last night but no significant changes but am very worried if it will...

Hi All, Wondering if anyone knows any of the possible compound effects from Nurofen Plus tablets (available in the UK and presumably abroad) that could have an effect on suppressing tinnitus symptoms? I know it is essentially a pain killer for headaches and back pain but I had a really bad...

...to my damn static in my ears/head? That might also explain the fluid retention problem that I've been having possibly? Found this: Ibuprofen vs. meloxicam (Mobic) quick comparison of differences Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, and others) and meloxicam (Mobic) are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory...

Ibuprofen is ototoxic! http://hlaa-sbc.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Ototoxic_Brochure.pdf Tylenol is the only painkiller that's not ototoxic... If I were you, I would stop taking Ibuprofen. It is possible/likely? that this is the reason why your tinnitus keeps getting worse. The ears of...

Thanks everyone . I was able to labor naturally. The ibuprofen is for pain control now.. They offered me ibuprofen, Tylenol 3 or Vicoden. I'm not sure which is less ototoxic but the doses are small.. Ibuprofen is 800mg once every 6-8 hours or something crazy. I didn't take the fentanol because I...

...it all started. I feel like alcohol helps, but it also causes intense spike moments, which scares me. Other things that seem to help are ibuprofen and prednisone. The doctors just sent me home and told me to wait, saying it would stop eventually. I’ve been dealing with this since February...

Makes sense! The spike might be due to her getting ibuprofen. I hope they will agree to switch to Tylenol...

Looks like in the past 20 years, only 695 people reported getting tinnitus as a side effect of taking Ibuprofen to the FDA. https://www.ehealthme.com/ds/ibuprofen/tinnitus/ It is possible, but rare.

...almost two weeks in Romania, mostly in Bucharest, which is a noisy city. Also, I've got a 18-month daughter, who's not the most quiet member of the family! My ears did not get much rest in between both flights. I tried to "damage control" the best I could with either Aspirin or Ibuprofen.

Is it the case that you can't replace ibuprofen with tylenol?

...Most individuals feel tired ("washed out") after the procedure and they frequently want to nap, which is fine. Headache. If headache occurs, it is fine to take ibuprofen (Motrin), acetaminophen (Tylenol) or other medications you use for headache. Nausea (rare). Weakness/numbness in the arm...

Yes. This was what I was doing. Taking Ibuprofen for my headaches and getting bowel issues and skin flares. You must study Histamine intolerance. My GPs haven't got a clue. Good luck.

Hi, I got severe foot pain last week so I took 200 mg of Ibuprofen once a day for 3 days and the first 2 days my T was okay then on the 3rd which was 2 days ago my T just turned very high, I know it's the Ibuprofen. Anyone here had T spike due to Ibuprofen? Did it go down for some of you? How...

@jeannie what combination specifically ? Trobalt neurontin or trobalt ibuprofen ? I would stay well away from ibuprofen and diclofenac , pretty much to only thing I can absolutely count on spiking my T.

Thank you for sharing your experience ! Actually I took a few times some Ibuprofen but I guess it was ok... Good if for you it doesn't increase your Tinnitus ! :)

Resisting the temptation to take ibuprofen daily at this point...but worried about long term side-effects :S

I was taking Ibuprofen for headaches several times a week when I was a caffeine addict. I weaned my way off of caffeine so my headaches would go away (they did) and so I could stop taking Ibuprofen for those headaches. After months of being caffeine free and mostly Ibuprofen free, I saw no...

I also recently took ibuprofin before my T increased. Did yours ever decrease?

I would think your chances are very low. Getting tinnitus from taking Ibuprofen is simply conjecture. Most tinnitus is caused by noise damage such as wearing headphones with the volume turned up too loud.

Before tinnitus I used Ibuprofen rather often for headaches (with often I mean once or twice a month a dose of 400mg). Since tinnitus I use it maybe three times a year. I sometimes try Tylenol but that does not work as good for a headache as Ibuprofen. I never noticed any difference in my tinnitus.
