Guest guest Posted October 9, 2001 Report Share Posted October 9, 2001 Alon, he is suffering from anxiety and depression, it seems to give him relief from the ringing sounds. A year ago he went to a naturapath which told him to stop the xanax imediatly, and promissed full relief. he did so, and all symptoms were just 10 times worse. What drugs can you recommand? Though my goal would be eventually to take him off completely from such drugs. if there is something more suitable I would like to know and recomand he asks his doctor for them. thanks Boaz - alonmarcus Tuesday, October 09, 2001 9:56 PM Re: tinitus xannax for the depression >>>>This drug can actually cause depression. It is used for anxiety and is very addictive. I would get him of it as soon as possible. If he needs western meds there are much better drugs AlonChinese Herbal Medicine, a voluntary organization of licensed healthcare practitioners, matriculated students and postgraduate academics specializing in Chinese Herbal Medicine, provides a variety of professional services, including board approved online continuing education.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2001 Report Share Posted October 9, 2001 What drugs can you recommend >>>>Most patients with anxiety depression are much better off with an anti-depressant, such as an SSRI or a combination SSRI and tricyclic/ or trazadone. Most short active benzo's such as xanax are addictive and in my opinion should not be used unless absolutely needed or for very short time. Withdrawal of xanax can be quit difficult and giving him PABA and GABA can be helpful. Frequent acupuncture is very helpful. Alon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
