Approximately 59% of patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss show some hearing recovery after steroid treatment, a symptom sometimes associated with acoustic neuromas. However, this leads many to ask: can prednisone help an acoustic neuroma directly, or is its role more nuanced?

Early retrospective research from 2014 suggested that aspirin intake correlated with reduced acoustic neuroma (vestibular schwannoma) growth. However, the question of whether or not can aspirin shrink acoustic neuroma is far more complex, with more recent studies and meta-analyses questioning this initial promising finding.
