Botox shots in ear muscles tested to quiet ringing

NCT ID NCT05650645

Summary

This study tested whether injections of a medication similar to Botox (called Xeomin) into the small muscles around the ear could help reduce the bothersome ringing sound known as tinnitus. 41 adults with persistent tinnitus received either the real injection or a placebo (fake) shot. Researchers measured changes using a standard tinnitus questionnaire to see if the treatment made the condition less disruptive to daily life.
