RE: Seeking advice for Ringing in Ear
Iam 36 yr old female with Rhumatoid (Ar…..) taking (Met….) for about 3 years.
i am experiencing ringing in ear(left ear mostly) for 6 months.Frequency of ringing -1-2 times a day and the duration is about -3-8 secs.
Kindly suggest what shall i do?
is this a contraindication of DMARD?
Drugs used for Rheumatoid (ar….) like (me…….) and (hy…) can rarely do cause tinnitus. You must see an ENT surgeon for investigating the cause of tinnitus. If it is significant and (me……) is the cause of tinnitus, then you may need a rheumatologist review for change of your medication for Rheumatoid (ar….).

1-2 times for 3-8 secs is not a severe Problem. U can continue the treatment as DMARD is the definitive treatment.If there is any hearing loss , should go for audiological investigations
