Age-related hearing loss is a well-known condition and many studies have been performed on the possibility of its prevention and treatment. Recent studies have revealed similar physiological aging changes in the equilibrium function, while little is known about its pathogenesis, prevention and treatment. In the present study, we observed the effects of medical treatment, such as vasoactive drugs, vitamins, radical scavengers, etc., on the equilibrium function in the patients, who were treated for age-related hearing loss and not aware of balance disorders retrospectively, in order to determine whether age-related balance disorders were treatable or not. Stabilometry was performed in 16 patients (5 males and 10 females, aged 70-87 (77.1±5.6) years), at the time of the first visit, 2 months and 4 months after drug therapy. As a result, a significant improvement in various parameters of stabilometry was observed. These results may indicate the possibility of the prevention and treatment of age-related balance disorders as with age-related hearing loss.
