...of them I found after only the first time of taking the med, the loudness of the tinnitus increased and I stopped with the exception of Pregabalin. However after some reading I have concerns about Pregabalin as a treatment option for insomnia and GAD, considerable withdrawal issues, links to...

...This is true. That is why I was put on it along with Clonazepam 4 mg/a day and Brintellix (Vortioxetin) 20 mg/a day. I've been on Pregabalin 300 mg/a day for 2 months now and I'm still anxious and down on life most of the time. I didn't notice any major change in my Tinnitus. Sometimes I...

Hi, how you are feeling now? Did your tinnitus subsided? I got severe tinnitus from Lyrica one month ago, before i had just mild. I cant believe, i just took 75 Mg pill 3 evenings

...I appreciate your thoughts and your encouragement. I thought about this a lot. I can't decide what is the best guess on what is going on. Pregabalin withdrawal increases glutamate, we know that much. This seems to explain why staying on a low dose or even tapering does not seem to help. But...

...(if anything). Are you supposed to take Amitriptyline for neuropathic pain? I guess Gabapentin is another option, but hard to know which is best. Pregabalin seems a bit scary. I tried it before tinnitus got worse and it caused lots of dizziness. Where are you that you can't get benzos for pain?

I never really took it long enough to notice any serious negative side effects. Perhaps the most I ever did was two days in a row. I remember taking it a couple of times and it had a calming effect and one time I took it I remember it having an "anti-OCD" effect for me.

...i also have occipital neuralgia (never had an accident though — doctors said it was most likely because of bad postures)... and am taking Pregabalin to deal with the nerve pain so... yeah, I definitely have a few neck and jaw issues going on, which is why big headphones are a big no-no for me...

...me a big favour whenever I see him. He wouldnt prescribe a non-Benzo anxiolytic for me even though it is licenced for that purpose (its Pregabalin). So Ive had to pay to see someone and pay for the med privately (doctors & meds are free in the UK). Its cost me a fortune. I dearly wish i...

...something to say about Clonazepam (experiences, questions, etc.), then use this thread you are now reading. If your post is related to Pregabalin (Lyrica), then use this thread Louise has created: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/threads/pregabalin-lyrica.1105/ If it's related to both, then...

...the ones who dont mess about and arent afraid to prescribe. The guy had helped a few tinnitus patients he told me. His drug of choice was Pregabalin so I took it. Never looked back. I gave me back me. The me who wasnt terrified. Its had a very marked effect on my life. I totally understand...

I'm on 0.375 mg Clonazepam. I was on 0.5 mg. It only worked for a couple of weeks. The tinnitus has been worsening steadily and it is insane. Problem is that trying to taper accelerates the worsening so I don't know what to do. This might have been compounded by previous use of Pregabalin.

He was probably the typical up himself psychiatrist whose god is pharmacology. He probably thought who is this minion to be showing me 'the great psychiatrist' data about side effects. Guy needs taking down a peg or two.

Can please someone tell me what medication is not bad for this horrific hell condition looks lake even water is not good for this hell and is not cures or treatment so what we supposed to do with this horrific very severe tinnitus and hyperacusis I’m sick and tired of people who have mild...

...patients apparently and he says they usually benefit from targeted gaba supplementation. I looked into this a long time ago when tapering pregabalin. What people usually suggest is using precursors or modulators: - Taurine (this is the least controversial) - L-Theanine (this is more...

...to help me with my w/d management. Also, you can find attached all the drugs I was given and now I'm just trying to rid myself of these last two: Rivotril (clonazepam) and Pregabalin (Lyrica). The 2 hardest ones to come off. Fingers crossed. I'm gonna have some updates soon so stay tuned :)

Have you and Marin considered natural remedies? I don't know what pharmaceuticals you have tried, but if nothing has helped, you could try something natural. I want to try CBD oil and plan to get one. I need to research what seems to work for many people because there's so many out there now...

...I am on Luvox, which has an affinity of 5,786 on 5-HT2C. I am considering taking Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) to help with benzo and Pregabalin tapering. Searching on Google I found that PEA "increases serotonergic neurotransmission through the serotonin receptor 5HT1 and downregulates...

Knowing that your tinnitus is very bad, my view is that this is caused by the drugs. You werent exposed to loud noise which can lead to loud tinnitus suddenly. But assume it was caused by accumulated loud noise events from the past, I dont think it would have been that bad if there wasnt a one...

...... Adding more sounds and making the previous ones absolute hell. There are two periods when i was feeling fine. First was when i took Pregabalin, which calms the central nervous system. I slept like a baby for three months and T was almost gone. That was the best three months since two...

...is so different now - many more tones and swishing and swirling, up and down. So intrusive and attention-seeking. I have gone back on Pregabalin for the anxiety as it was too terrible. It knocked the noise down by 50% for the first 2 nights but tonight it hasn't yet. But then I've had some...

...in both animal models and in humans. Phenibut is a close structural analogue of GABA, as well as of baclofen (β-(4-chlorophenyl)-GABA), pregabalin (β-isobutyl-GABA), and GABOB (β-hydroxy-GABA). Originally thought to act as a selective GABAB receptor agonist, phenibut has since been found to...

Hey I just wanted to bump this because I've been taking another swipe at this. I am still on 2mg/day Clonazepam. I had been at 600-900mg/day Gabapentin (mostly 600, sometimes 900). I held to 600 for a couple weeks, then cut to 450 for about a week and a half, cut to ~350 for a few days and then...

Right Louise, There was that window of opportunity with hyperbaric oxtgen so I went for it because I didnt want to regret missing the chance. I knew it might not have any effect from just reading around and I knew I would regret spending the money on the other side of it if it didnt work, which...

My ENT said something about a "window being open" inside my head. I can alter my sound by moving my head, eyes or clenching my jaw. Either stressrelated or has something to do with some fucking fatloss drug I tried (Mysimba). Have been depressed all my life too, so there are many factors here...

...and the constant worsening I had from inception are due to the gaba drugs I have been taking and tapering for these 21 months. This is pregabalin for 17 months, tapered to zero with many difficulties, and clonazepam for 4 months after I hit zero with pregabalin, as I had a tragic event in my...

That's a tough question. You could try calling a pharmacist and asking them but even they might not be familiar with it. Perhaps a knowledgeable neurologist might know. I actually have been thinking about this medication lately again. I know I said earlier in the thread it might not be the drug...

I've been on Lyrica/Pregabalin for the past two months 300mg a day. No hearing loss detected yet. I'm just going through a bad T spike and was wondering if Lyrica could be the cause of it? Oh, and check this out: https://www.anausa.org/smf/index.php?topic=12258.0

Unfortunately with the onset of my tinnitus, Pregabalin also is known to cause visual snow, floaters and other disturbances. I'm sensitive to light, I see trails (like after HPPD from psychedelics although in this case... it's worse than the few months after LSD when I was a few years younger)...

Hey man - I think I'll try Carbamazepine as well for the ear neuralgia. Was yours constant or in response to sounds like your 4-year-old screeching? Was it ear fullness or a stabbing sensation in response to sound? Hey Keith - fellow Delawarian here. How're you doing these days? Did your...

...but of course I had a bit of my usual suicidal ideation. Half of it comes from Tinnitus, half of it comes from the post-withdrawal state Pregabalin has left me in. But altogether, 100% of that comes from Pregabalin. Has microdosing had any effect? Well, the 2nd time.. not really. I'm not...

...Thats interesting. I have some trobalt in my drawer but didn't try it yet. Anecdotes of permanent floaters freaked me out. Currently I try pregabalin but when I finish I will give trobalt a short try. Not so much to get relief, but just to know if it works for me like it does for you. If it...

Does it help your tinnitus or hyperacusis? Did you get it from a Swedish doctor for treating tinnitus or hyperacusis? The ones I have met have not been into any offlabel use....

For AV-101 I only found one mention on tinnitus in this document: https://ir.vistagen.com/all-sec-filings/content/0001654954-20-007107/0001654954-20-007107.pdf They received fast track for AV-101 back in 2018, whatever that means for the drug to hit the market.

...I did not take anymore anti-depressents, but the tinnitus continued. In April I had emergency spinal surgery and started taking Lyrica (Pregabalin) for the nerve pain. It was super helpful for the pain and I experienced a reduction in the tinnitus! yay i thought. I started with 75mg twice...

...an email or not when someone makes a post. I hope you are feeling ok today? Did you take any more Clonazepam? Did you think about Pregabalin? I've unwittingly made my T worse yesterday so its been pestering me a lot today. It can still F off though, it aint ruining my life :) Signing...

...effect of the Clonaz and realize I have gained nothing because It is back and loud. I will be on the phone tomorrow morning to try to get Pregabalin. You told me it takes a while to take effect. How many days did it take? I now think I wasted 1500.00 on oxygen treatments too, more fine news...

...01 I habituated after a few years, now I have it louder. Had a walk - freezing and quiet, its better at home! Yesterday I didnt venture out, just ordered a nice takeaway in and watched a movie. Good that you dont build tolerance to pregabalin. I did endless relaxation exercises when I first...

Hey you - I am doing good actually. Its all down to the Pregabalin. Dont want to say anything too soon but its relieved my anxiety and I feel like myself again even WITH the T. I seem able to ignore it a lot more and do other things. The drug hasnt reduced the noise though. But, I'd rather feel...

I'm trying to revive this thread. I'm trying to establish how drugs worsened my tinnitus (originated by a virus). Coming off Pregabalin and now on Clonazepam. It keeps worsening more and more and the only cause I can think of is GABA drugs and tolerance. My tinnitus is not tonal, it's a...

Louise, I'm glad you're doing better. Lyrica is a good drug. When it first appeared on the market, it was used to treat fibromyalgia. Tinnitus follows the same pathways as nerve pain. The two are closely related so that drug seems like a good choice. I see it's also used for epilepsy...

...taper over the months. So probably in my case the drug was dampening the tinnitus and when I reduced it tinnitus went ballistic, similarly to @Star64 experience with clonazepam. Pregabalin is not a gaba drug but is a gaba analogue. It should not give withdrawals but for some unlucky people it...

Be careful with gabapentin. It should not be addictive but it often turns out to be. I'm tapering its sister and more powerful drug, pregabalin, and it has been hell.

...after my 400ug dose gave me HPPD. I took another 400ug+ dose 6-7 months later. However this was nothing in comparison to now. After Pregabalin I feel like I'm on a permanent LSD microdose that went too far... it's not just the visual snow and tinnitus, it's dp/dr, anxiety, paranoia, etc...

...specialist next week. The main theory at the moment is that a virus has attacked the inner ear but I am also slowly tapering a medication (pregabalin) that has balance side effects. I'm very confused and worried, tinnitus and balance together are dragging me down. One possible cause for both...

I'm now engaged, we won't have kids for the next decade that's for sure. I don't want kids ever, but we'll see. I now have a normal job in sales, it's quiet for the most part and I'm just saving up money for the future. Never know what can happen. I did get better in terms of mental health and...

Hang in there AVIYT, tinnitus is a different beast than most and it takes time for your ears to heal. I too would like to take back some of the stupid decisions I’ve made before but it’s probably not gonna happen so the only thing we can do is to look forward. You will get better, there’s no...

Great..well many Neurologists need updating. Re TN I have no idea. ATN most use Ami.

So by calming down trigeminal nerve, you will calm down the hyperacusis? I’m getting on Pregabalin soon to see if this might work.

...between me and him is that he is not anxious AT ALL about his! Well, he has had it a long time. Also his is a constant 'eeee' rather than this rubbishy full ear static, radio tuning in, dentists drill with a full head buzz that I have. I wish you could get Pregabalin Hudson, it really does...

...so sure about this. I see my audiologist tomorrow. Today was one of my better days with these hearing aids. I am happy to hear that pregabalin seems to be helping you. It must be a much better drug than clonezapam. Lyrica is a very popular medicine in the U.S. for fibromyalgia. The "gaba"...

Another painful day. Woke up with the constant crazy hiss from hell. Pregabalin at current dosage is useless , should stop it but lowering dosage makes it worse. I don't want to take clonazepam again. I'm pushing through, woke up my children, kissed them and made them breakfast, I am going to...

...getting these spikes. Do you think it could have been the antibiotics? I'm also on various other medications including amitriptyline, pregabalin, alverine citrate, fluoxetine and valerian. All of these I've been on for years but do you know if any of them could be the possible cause...

Its interesting the ketogenic diet helped you. Keep it up. I may look into it myself. Worth trying anything that may help. Sorry you had an incident to set you back. Hopefully your T will lessen again.

Unfortunately there is no guarantee with any pharmacological treatment. The drug certainly is not known to be ototoxic, thus does not cause physical damage to the ear but it could cause aggravation to your Tinnitus that will most likely stop one the medication is stopped. Unfortunately...

@grate_biff I think there's been a bit of a misunderstanding. The original question by @Born To Slay concerning the trigeminal nerve had to do with hyperacusis-induced facial/jaw pain specifically, not hyperacusis ear/cochlea pain. I wasn't saying that Lyrica or Gabapentin wouldn't work for the...

...can hear it inside an aircraft over the jet engine, in heavy traffic, in a loud restaurant. It's reactive and unmaskable anyway but after pregabalin hit zero it went louder and unbearable. With the benzo it keeps a similar quality but it lowers in intensity. It can still be heard but it is...

...It definitely made me loopier, but it felt like a reasonable thing to try. You probably know this, but I would recommend gabapentin over pregabalin, since gabapentin is far easier to ramp up and down. EDIT: I am about halfway through coming off of it. If I experience any obvious ear symptoms...

...more frustrating and a new sound kicked in - like a high-frequency dentist drill. After that i went to Otoneurologist and he prescribed me Pregabalin - a drug for epilepsy. While i was taking it in higher dosage it was all fine and i was able to sleep well for about a month. I even went to...

...Pfizer’s best selling drugs. I am taking 75mg and do have severe noise atm but I’m taking zolpidem and clonazepam also. For some people Pregabalin actually helps their tinnitus. Pregablin’s predecessor Gabapentin was used by Dr. Shulman with clonazepam to treat tinnitus. Not sure of the long...
