      Hi all,

      In desperation I have taken a Nytol tonight to try and induce sleep as my tinnitus has been preventing me sleeping a lot. It was originally triggered by Sertraline by the way.

      Since taking it 3 hours ago I genuinely feel that the tinnitus is LOUDER! For god's sake! Are there ANY drugs that do not have the potential to make tinnitus worse? It's just a mine field trying to navigate what is safe and what isn't.

      Do people think Nytol could have made it worse?

      Thanks

      Lizzie

      Everything does, so probably.

      Not really sure
      I would try to find a different product. Perhaps one that does not have acetaminophen. Have you tried melatonin? Threefirefour is right that it seems like most everything has the possibility of aggravating/inducing T.

      Best wishes,
      Dan

      Thanks, it is so distressing to feel that any drug has the potential to make it worse. It just feels like a total minefield and I feel so I'm so mistrusting of any prescription drugs. I think melatonin Will be the only one I am now willing to try. Thanks

      Nightmare I think
      I took 2 Nytol 50mg tabs last night to help me sleep and I woke up with worse tinnitus and it's been like this all day :(

      I’ve only had tinnitus for 10 days. Is there anything I can take or do in this early stage to prevent my tinnitus from getting worse?

      Any help or advice would be great.
