The Kidneys are related to hearing in Chinese medicine. The Kidneys can represent the hormonal balance of the adrenal glands. In this case, buproprion is an NRI, and norepinephrine is one of the hormones released by the adrenal glands.
Kidney deficiency is similar to adrenal insufficiency, and may also present with symptoms such as low back pain, weakness in the legs, night sweats, urinary problems, low libido, and sexual dysfunction. Psyche drugs in general seem to tax the kidneys, hence all the weird urinary and sexual symptoms, along with apathy and lack of drive.
There are many herbal formulas that can address the underlying cause of tinnitus. There's no way you're going to remedy drug-induced tinnitus with more drugs. Nutrition and supplementation maybe, but herbs are the best bet for dealing with issues that result from chronic exposure to medication.
