Accutane and Tinnitus

Please note: While Weitz & Luxenberg has provided information about a number of medical and psychiatric side effects associated with the use of Accutane, we do not currently accept cases involving Tinnitus.

We are only able to assist Accutane patients who develop these gastrointestinal diseases: Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease.

Tinnitus is the perception of a ringing or beating sound in the human ear (often perceived as sinusoidal) with no external source. This sound may be quiet, or loud enough to drown out all outside sounds. Causes of tinnitus include:

A sudden loud noise,

Hearing loss(20 per cent of cases: chronic noise damage and presbycusis)

Head injury (especially basal skull fracture),

Drugs: aspirin overdose, loop diuretics, aminoglycosides, quinine

Temporomandibular and cervical spine disorders,

Suppurative otitis media (also chronic infection and serous OM)

Otosclerosis

Ear wax

Meniere's disease

Impacted wisdom teeth

Hypertension and atherosclerosis

Acoustic neuroma

Palatal myoclonus (objectively detectable)

Arteriovenous fistulae and arterial bruits (objectively detectable)

Severe anaemia and renal failure

Glomus jugulare tumours (objectively detectable)

Lyme Disease

Stress and depression

Some types of tinnitus can be treated while others are permanent. In general, there are no cures specific to tinnitus, but if it is caused by a physical condition that can be treated, the tinnitus may also resolve.

Chronic tinnitus can be quite stressful, as it distracts the affected individual from mental tasks and interferes with sleep, particularly when there is no external sound.
