I have some ringing in the ears, but I’m not sure if it’s damadge. I think it’s normal to have a little noise in the ears even if they are perfectly healthy, no?

Yeah, I have had sound in my ears as long as I can remember. Maybe ringing is the wrong word. More like some high pitch background noise.

I wouldnt even worry about it then. I just consider mine a minor annoyance that creeps in from time to time. I’ve never even brought it up to my doc.

Maybe if it gets worse or something, bring it up again.

paliperidone related tinnitus is harmless and not related to ototoxia but if you experience tinnitus from Fluvoxamine it might be ototoxia and i don t know what would be the prognosis.you should talk with your doctors about this

@Natron please consider i m not a doctor and your tinnitus probably not important thing but its better to ask for this issue to your pdoc in next therapy session.probably its harmless
