To date, there is no successful method of treatment that "cures"<unk> . There have been successful therapies in single cases that have ameliorated the<unk> . Some of these successes include drugs such as neuroleptics, antidepressants, and certain anticonvulsive drugs. A<unk> was alleviated, for example, by antidepressant medications given to patients with depression. Sanchez reported that some authors have suggested that the use of hearing aids may improve<unk> symptoms. They believed that the external environment influences the auditory<unk> , showing worsening of symptoms in quieter environments than in noisier ones. Oliver Sacks' patient, Mrs. O'C, reported being in an "ocean of sound" despite being in a quiet room due to a small thrombosis or infarction in her right temporal lobe. After treatment, Mrs. O'C was relinquished of her musical experience but said that, "I do miss the old songs. Now, with lots of them, I can't even recall them. It was like being given back a forgotten bit of my childhood again." Sacks also reported another elderly woman, Mrs. O'M, who had a mild case of deafness and reported hearing musical pieces. When she was treated with anticonvulsive medications, her<unk>  ceased but when asked if she missed them, she said "Not on your life." Another, potential treatment for<unk>  is donepezil. Researchers found that patients respond well to the drug. The main use of the drug is to treat dementia in patients, but is primarily a cholinesterase inhibitor. The goal of this medication is provide patients with a better quality of life. This includes inhibiting the loss of function or improving the ability to think. For patients of<unk> , the medication keeps them more aware and stimulated to control the onset symptoms of<unk> . Overall, with few adverse effects, research has found that donepezil is an effective and safe choice of treatment.
