I would stop them all, to be honest.

Ginkgo has been shown not to work in a huge randomized high-quality study.

Taking a multivitamin each day has been associated with increased mortality.

Folate (a B vitamin) has been linked with increased cancer rates.

In the studies on daily vitamin/mineral supplements, I seem to recall that magnesium was one of the specific ingredients that looked bad.

None of those things has been shown to help tinnitus.

Another consideration, at least in the US, is that supplements aren't tested very much as to content. Garlic pills may contain pharmaceuticals or impurities not found in real garlic, for instance.

I'm not against such things on principle, but I now take only one supplement, and that is a highly refined fish oil. I've been on it for years, and my doctors have recommended it for me. I doubt that it does anything for tinnitus.

I suspect that tinnitus will improve (at least the reaction to it will improve) with improved health and well-being. I would try eating healthy food, exercising, and maybe engaging in meditation, yoga or the like. The better you feel, the less the tinnitus (or anything else) will bother you.
