    Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1977 Feb; 56(2):160-6. PubMed ID: 139517.
    Abstract:
    This study is concerned with the mean hearing gain in 50 cases of sudden deafness and 40 cases of Menière's disease treated with different drugs and treated with Papaverin and low molecular weight dextran. The treatment of sudden deafness with Papaverin and low molecular dextran was more effective than different drugs. In cases of Menière's disease the treatment with different drugs was not effective, but Papaverin and low molecular dextran was significantly successful. Finally, it is concluded that treatment according to Spoendlin (1969) with Papaverin and low molecular dextran is superior to different drugs.
