Abstract in brief

  • Tinnitus is hearing a sound without any external source, and it can severely impact quality of life, with no universally effective treatment currently available.
  • Recent research suggests that oral zinc supplements might help manage tinnitus because zinc plays a role in the auditory system, but evidence from clinical trials is limited and of moderate to high risk of bias.
  • A review of three randomized controlled trials involving 209 participants found no clear evidence that zinc supplementation significantly improves tinnitus severity or related symptoms, highlighting the need for more high-quality research.
