title: [The therapy of tinnitus resulting from blast injury (author's transl)].
abstract: In a prospective study aimed at the cure of tinnitus due to blast injury, oral treatment of 172 patients with the mono-substances Betahistine, Pentoxifyllin and Xantinol-nicotinate were compared with those of control patients who received no medications. Patients treated with Pentoxifyllin and Xantinol-nicotinate improved better than the comparative group without therapy although the differences were not considerable. Betahistine as compared with the other groups produced significantly better therapeutic results.
