About
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of high-dose intranasal oxytocin for treating tinnitus. The hypothesis is that high dose intranasal oxytocin can significantly reduce tinnitus severity and disability.
Full description
This is a pilot, proof of concept, placebo-controlled, parallel study. Participants will be recruited from NYU Langone Medical Center's Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) Department and will receive either high-dose intranasal oxytocin or a nasal spray containing Pcca Mucolox and distilled water, serving as the placebo. Long term treatment with high-dose oxytocin (45 IU four times daily) may reduce the frequency and severity of tinnitus, the burden tinnitus symptoms cause patients, and improve their quality of life.
