It is estimated that around 80% of patients referred to tinnitus clinics can be helped simply by relevant examination and reassurance For those needing more treatment the approach varies among professionals and countries but is usually multidisciplinary. There is no cure for tinnitus in the common sense of the word–no drug has been proved effective in attenuating not to say abolishing tinnitus for an appreciable proportion of patients. Antidepressants or nocturnal sedatives may deal with the effects of tinnitus for highly emotional patients for a short period while the underlying psychological disturbance is being treated. With a few exceptions, surgery specifically aimed at eliminating tinnitus is obsolete.

I lowered my salt intake, and listen to only quite music.

Check out The Aspirin Alternative by Dr Michael Loes. He discusses the use of a product called Wobenzyme in treating tinnitis.
