Haven't thought about it being caused by medications. I’ve been on amlodipine for at least 10 years. I do have several chronic health conditions and I am deficient in iron.
I think once the sounds of tinnitus is there they do not go away.

Depending on the cause, tinnitus may go away. Iron deficiency anemia, some Vit Bs, Vit D deficiency, Amlodipine, all can cause tinnitus that may go away after a couple of months after correction.
As I mentioned, I got tinnitus and hyperacusis 4 months ago while on multiple antihypertensive medications: Losartan +Metoprolol + Amlodipine. I also got iron deficiency at that time. I have discontinued the medications since and had some iron infusions, but tinnitus is not going away. I am still Vit D deficient - waiting for IM injections.
Constant tinnitus is a high-pitched sound. Hearing music playing in the head usually happens post sitting close to TV and watching music concerts. High Blue ray exposure makes it worse, like watching TV or listening to the music at a close up (loud techno) and before going to bed. Try reducing your blue ray exposure, particularly at night. Hearing music goes away in a couple of days after limited TV at night and sitting at a safe distance.
Watching videos on a laptop can also cause high blue ray exposure and worsen tinnitus with music. This is all based on my experience.
