Hi,
Does anybody know if Bacopa is safe for tinnitus?
I got tinnitus from benzo withdrawal and I am thinking in trying Bacopa. But l've read some cases where Bacopa worsened tinnitus (or causes it).
Any experience with T and Bacopa?
Thanks in avance.
Regards.

It makes my tinnitus worse. But your experience may be different. Y
It is cheap and safe, I would give it a chance.

Thanks for your answer William. The worsening is temporal. How long does it take to improve after stopping the intake?
Also what's the cause of your tinnitus?

I think I have it from loud music and mild vascular disease. Bacopa makes it noticeable, but I still take it a few times a week or so. I don't think it causes more damage, just enhance acetylcholine at the sensory nerve to amplify the already fuzzy signal. It should return to normal after a week without Bacopa, as it can take up to that long for NTs (5-HT, ACh) to return to baseline.

I went to a concert in a bar, and the volume was insanely high, the most insanely high I have ever heard anything, I didn't last long, a couple of minutes maybe, but the damage was done. I have been suffering this shit for years. I don't know how much it takes to get better after I stop Bacopa, but under no circumstances more than two weeks, and maybe just one week. I still take Bacopa, despite how bad the tinnitus gets, because I really need more memory.
