Some non-dietary substances can increase symptoms of vestibular disorders. Aspirin can increase tinnitus, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen, can interfere cause water retention or electrolyte imbalance. Nicotine (found in tobacco products and some cease-smoking aids) can increase symptoms, because it decreases the blood supply to the inner ear by constricting blood vessels; it also causes a short-term increase in blood pressure.
Many of these guidelines are commonly recommended to people with Meniere's disease, endolymphatic hydrops, or vestibular migraine. A physician or dietician may incorporate some of these principles into an individualized treatment plan.
