NAD+ Enhanced on Hearing Recovery in Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss: Randomized Controlled Trial

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This 2‐year, single‐center, double‐blind study with a small sample size compared NAD+ and control groups in a randomized controlled trial for sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL). Results showed that NAD+ led to better hearing improvement from 7 days to 3 months and a shorter average recovery time compared to the control group.
