There are many people who crave tinnitus relief, and want the ringing of the ears to just go away. The tinnitus keeps these sufferers up at night, and prevents them from getting enough sleep.

How can these victims obtain tinnitus relief?

Rachel Meltzer in her article (Prevention; July, 2006), cites a study done at Washington University. Tinnitus sufferers were given 3 mg of melatonin each day for a month. (Melatonin is an amino acid, a natural remedy used to aid sleep.) The researchers interviewed the patients the following month, after they stopped taking the melatonin.

The participants in the study experienced a partial tinnitus relief. Their symptoms were reduced by 30%. Although their sleep improved in the first month of the study, they still continued to sleep better even when they were off the melatonin.

This study seems to imply that increasing the amount of sleep will help relieve tinnitus symptoms.  However, whether melatonin is the best possible remedy is questionable.
