Does anyone ever get sudden ringing in your ears when you take hydro 5/500. Also feels a little plugged.

What did you say? Speak up, I can't hear you over that loud ringing noise.

I live with tinnitus. It is so loud I hear it over most sounds around me. Not fun at all!

long term or over use of narcotics can cause hearing loss or tinnitus indefinately.

I believe my use of vicodin contributed to my having tinnitus, a constant buzzing/ringing in my ears.  It was reported that Rush Limbaugh's use of oxy contributed to his losing his hearing.  There is no cure for it, I've been living with it for several years. (I also feel a long term use of benadryl also contributed to it).

If you are taking these meds recreationally, I'd suggest stopping now, if you're using them under a doctor's care, I'd suggest talking to him her about it.  Overuse/abuse can lead to hearing problems and I know (though this is probably the first time I've admitted it) I've suffered some higher frequency hearing loss.

Yes I had that but it never lasted long, a minute or two, but I always have had inner ear problems.   If it feels plugged , I would get it checked out.
