Men and women 60 years and older with problematic tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, are invited to participate in a University of Iowa research study examining the effect of a pure form of zinc on the condition.
Zinc is a biologically important trace element that plays a role in nerve tissue function. The study, which will involve five visits to University Hospitals in Iowa City over 10 months and six telephone interviews, will test whether this pure form of zinc can reduce tinnitus.
To be eligible, individuals should be generally healthy, not involved in other treatments for tinnitus and not taking any dietary supplements. For more information, contact Shelley Witt at (319) 356-3969 or shelley-witt@uiowa.edu.
