      My doctor has prescribed misoprostol low dose for my pulsatile tinnitus. Says one of her patients has had success with reducing the noise. Shouldn’t be used by all women however I’ve read that if you are post-menopause it is safe.

      Anyone heard of this med as a possible treatment for PT?

      Thank you.

      Really pulsatile tinnitus is something very special. Vascular problems often play a role in pulsatile tinnitus.

      A drug treatment of pulsatile tinnitus is unknown. Blood thinners may be helpful in individual cases.
