Lenire FAQs
-
How effective is Lenire?
Lenire is proven across three clinical trials to reduce the severity of tinnitus.
- TENT-A1 (Trial 1): 86.2% of compliant trial patients had improvement in tinnitus severity after 12 weeks of treatment, as measured by THI score.
- TENT-A2 (Trial 2): 91% of compliant trial patients experienced sustained improvement in tinnitus severity when evaluated 12-months post-treatment.
- TENT-A3 (Trial 3): 70.5% of patients with moderate or worse tinnitus who used Lenire for six weeks had a significant tinnitus reduction when six weeks of sound-only stimulation had little impact.
83% of 500+ Lenire trial patients would recommend Lenire to treat tinnitus. Real world independent studies are consistent with findings in Lenire’s clinical trials.

How do I know if Lenire is suitable for me?
Your initial tinnitus assessment will determine if Lenire is a suitable treatment option for you or if another treatment is recommended. You can choose an initial tinnitus assessment with one of Òtologie’s Audiologists In-Clinic or Online.

How long do I use Lenire for?
Lenire should be used for two thirty minute sessions per day. These sessions can be back to back. You will be advised during your visits to Òtologie about the treatment plan length but typically initial treatment with Lenire can last at least 10 weeks. We will advise you about continued use of Lenire after your treatment plan is completed.

Is Lenire the only treatment device you provide?
Our team assess your tinnitus to give you more information about your tinnitus and to make the best treatment recommendation for you. We offer other treatments than Lenire. If you’re not suitable for Lenire, we will refer you to another treatment to get the best outcome for you.
-
How many Lenire appointments will I have?
The number of appointments you have will depend on your treatment plan. Every patient will have an assessment of their tinnitus to ensure Lenire is the right treatment for them. Following that, a fitting appointment lets you get used to using Lenire under the guidance of our clinician before you start treatment from home. We provide up to three follow-up appointments to check your progress with Lenire and provide further guidance about managing your tinnitus.
-

Purchase of the device is a single upfront payment. In the event you decide to terminate (cease) treatment, the upfront payment is non-refundable.
