> Is it normal to hear ringing in the ears? I first heard it when i first got on Wellbutrin. Then it went away. But now it's back, and I'm wondering if it ever goes away permanently? It keeps me from falling asleep at night, and it's almost deafening when there isn't any other noise to counteract it.

SB,

This is just my opinion so take it for what it is worth. I developed tinnitus on Wellbutrin and also a hearing loss that I think was caused by either WB or the Remeron I am on.

Knowing what I now know about ototoxicity (tinnitus is a sign of that), at the first sign of tinnitus, I would be off the drug in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, alot of psych meds cause tinnitus which is a whole other post.

Many professionals say that tinnitus doesn't lead to hearing loss but it sure seems to be quite common with one so who knows.

All I am saying is that when it comes to your hearing, you want to be very cautious. By the way, even though I am off the WB, the tinnitus has not disappeared although it has lessened.
