We conducted a double-blind clinical trial with 140 patients suffering from idiopathic tinnitus to gauge the effectiveness of vitamin B12. Participants were divided into two groups, one receiving vitamin B12 and the other a placebo over a month.
We evaluated tinnitus severity through questionnaires at multiple intervals. However, our findings revealed that vitamin B12 did not significantly reduce tinnitus severity compared to the placebo.
Ultimately, our study suggests that vitamin B12 may not be a beneficial treatment for tinnitus, as the results showed no noteworthy improvements.

We explored the potential benefits of Vitamin B12 in treating chronic tinnitus through a randomized, double-blind pilot study.
In this study, we followed 40 patients, half of whom received Vitamin B12 injections weekly for six weeks, while the other half received a placebo.
Notably, we found that many patients were Vitamin B12 deficient, and those who received the treatment reported significant improvements in their tinnitus severity. This suggests that Vitamin B12 may play a therapeutic role for patients suffering from tinnitus who are also deficient in this essential vitamin.

We examined 28 patients with tinnitus related to vitamin B12 deficiency to understand how B12 affects auditory brainstem responses (ABR). Although most neurological and imaging assessments were normal, some showed low amplitude in their ABR. This suggests that there might be a connection between vitamin B12 deficiency and altered auditory responses in tinnitus sufferers. However, our findings indicate that more detailed research is needed to clarify these effects.

Dizziness improvement
I purchased this after reading positive reviews regarding its effects on dizziness and tinnitus. Although it has only been a month, I noticed my dizziness has significantly reduced. I'm still observing the impact on my tinnitus, but my neuralgia has also improved, which is very encouraging.

Blood flow aid
I developed tinnitus following treatment for sudden deafness, so I opted for this to enhance blood flow. I believe I have noticed significant improvement, and the small grains make it easy to consume.

Comfort from tinnitus
The taste is reminiscent of plum mints, making it quite enjoyable. After taking it twice daily, my tinnitus has calmed down significantly, providing me comfort without the ringing.

We examined the effectiveness and safety of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) along with vitamin B12 treatment in patients with acute tinnitus. In this pilot study, 46 participants were randomly assigned to either real or sham TENS, receiving weekly vitamin B12 for four weeks.
After the treatment period, we noticed significant improvements in tinnitus symptoms for those receiving verum TENS, as shown by various scales. However, the specific impact of vitamin B12 on tinnitus symptoms was not detailed in the findings, suggesting its role may not be significant.

We examined the effects of Vitamin B12, among other medications, on tinnitus in a study involving 133 patients. Participants were divided into two groups based on the relationship between their auditory emissions and tinnitus frequencies. After 14 days of treatment, the group linked to positive emissions experienced a significant improvement, with an effective rate of 75.3%, compared to just 36.7% for the other group.
Overall, while Vitamin B12 showed promise in certain cases, tailored treatments may be essential for better outcomes, particularly in acute tinnitus cases.

We investigated the relationship between plasma levels of melatonin, vitamin C, and vitamin B12, and the presence of tinnitus in elderly individuals. Our study included 139 healthy seniors divided into those with and without tinnitus.
We found that both melatonin and vitamin B12 levels were significantly lower in those experiencing tinnitus. However, vitamin C levels showed no notable difference.
This indicates that addressing low levels of melatonin and vitamin B12 may be crucial in finding potential treatments for tinnitus in older adults.

Promotes blood flow
I purchased this to improve blood flow due to weak ears and experienced noticeable effects after about two weeks. It has a pleasant strawberry taste and is sweet. If I stop taking it, my tinnitus reappears, prompting me to resume intake, and I find it effective.
