Hearing was studied in nineteen patients with Meniere's disease before and after administration of three different hyperosmolar solutions-glycerol, ethanol, and Mannitol. Ethanol and Mannitol were found to be much less effective than glycerol in producing hearing gain. Alternative mechanisms un...

Zusammenfassung:	Hearing was studied in nineteen patients with Meniere's disease before and after administration of three different hyperosmolar solutions-glycerol, ethanol, and Mannitol. Ethanol and Mannitol were found to be much less effective than glycerol in producing hearing gain. Alternative mechanisms underlying the observed differences are discussed.
