Samm Posted May 13, 2012 Report Posted May 13, 2012 Can anyone give me some advice about medication for my visual snow? I am taking diamox at the moment but i'm not noticing any changes. I want to look at something without the snow, I got used to it but still I want to have a normal sight. I have tinnitus as well so I hear ringing all the time and togheter with the visual snow it's really fucked up Any good meds? Thanks in advance
morbide Posted May 13, 2012 Report Posted May 13, 2012 I think keppra and sinemet is most effective, and the workhorse for fighting hppd: klonopin seems to give temporary relief, Personally i think visual snow is the worst symtom. And that things are always moving, quit it already >
Ghormeh Sabzi Posted May 13, 2012 Report Posted May 13, 2012 I don't think anyone on this site has seen any improvement from Sinemet. I don't know if anyone in Dr. Abraham's trial got relief from visual snow from dopamine boosting meds. Klonopin seems to be the best for reducing HPPD symptoms (including visual snow), but is not a long term viable solution due to side effects of the medication. Keppra is something that can be taken long term, and has worked for a good amount of people. There are still side effects to look out for, however.
morbide Posted May 16, 2012 Report Posted May 16, 2012 I have noticed that i can barely see the snow when i have eaten much.
shaolinbomber Posted May 28, 2012 Report Posted May 28, 2012 Only opiates drastically decrease visuals for me but they are not a viable option due to their addictive nature. Best bet is to try and cope with the condition without any chemicals.
