biaxin bad taste

So i insisted on going back on Doxy but was prescribed Doxycycline Hyclate and not Mono like I originally was on, and though I have been sleeping better and feeling a bit better, I get stomack upsettness as bad or worse as the biaxin so I decided on my own to switch to Biaxin as my doc refused to prescribe me Mono. But anyway i do think you should get a hold of your doctor as they should have an on call option directed from the main office voicemail; as another member suggested you do.

i experience a lot of upper body aches especially in shoulders and under and around arms also many headdaches and tightness in head along with frequent bowel movements and nausea.and last but not least , my pallets taste like the medication and no matter how much water i drink " it doesn't seem to go away making my desire to eat , non-exesitant..i actually have to force myself to eat .

Since I have gone back on Biaxin and Tindamax in the last week, I seem to hit a wall around 3pm and I can't keep my eyes open. I have taken an afternoon nap about 4 days out of 7. I am a terrible napper and rarely ever nap, even when I was at my sickest with Lyme. I guess it could be herxing from the meds, but I haven't had this in the past. I am wondering if these two drugs are particularly targeting cysts and spiros in my brain.

I have been taking Biaxin for 5 days and have experienced the worst side effects i have ever had in my life! Nausea, headache, depression, crying outbursts, metallic taste, and wanting to sleep all day are the main ones. I have never felt depressed like this in my life. A feeling of sadness has taken over my body the past 5 days and it is miserable. Can somebody tell me why?? I stopped taking it today because I have had enough, I want my life back.

The taste can get especially bad when someone has post nasal drip and the dried blood sticks to the back of the throat. If bleeding gums are the cause there is often bad breath associated with the bad taste. Another uncommon reason for a metallic taste in mouth is due to small electric currents in the mouth. When two types of metals are used in two different dental fillings a battery can be created. Some believe that it's due to the mercury leakage from dental silver/mercury fillings.

And yes, I have gotten Biaxin mouth. It's just bad in that I'm coughing up phlegm with an even stronger taste of it.. Making me feel sick to my stomach..

I have 3 more days to finish the course. I am taking 4 500mg Amoxicilin along with 4 Biaxin and 4 prevacid a day right now. Bitter taste in my mouth ***** but I think I can bear it if it wipes out all the bacteria.

Some of the treatment regimens use a medication called metronidazole (Flagyl) or clarithromycin (Biaxin). These medications can cause a metallic taste in the mouth. You will need to consult a gastroenterologist for adequate therapy. Regards.

My doc perscribed Biaxin xl 2x 500 and prednisone 50mg 4 days if needed. Last night I was so bad I took the pred at 8pm. This morning I took the biaxin at 6am. It's been about 8 hours and my heart has sped up from about 70 to 85-90 for about an hour and won't come down. I'm afraid to take my next dose of prednisone but I've been on short bursts before with no issue. Is a resting heart rate around 90 something to be worried about?

I've been getting an awful taste in the back of my mouth for weeks now it's not a matalic taste but like a bad breath taste (that may sound strange but I don't know how else to describe it) it isn't a constant taste happens every few days and it's not helping with my sickness. Anybody having the same problem or know any solutions?

I have the same problem, its almost like a bad after taste in your mouth after anything you eat. Mines sit in the back of my throat and it disgust me!!!. I've tried several things but no resolution yet!

I have a bad taste in my mouth. Been nausous but no vomiting. What can I do to get rid of the bad taste? It is makingme feel terrible. Im 5w 4d.

What helps with the bad taste I have in my mouth all day? The things I crave seems to help it for that moment, but other than that its there uggghhh!!! Help!

I am 10wks and I can barely eat anything I have lost weight and I know that it is normal for the first trimester my problem is everything leaves a bad taste in my mouth I have tried everything this is my 3rd child this has never happened to me before..

I also got a bad reaction to Clindamycin a feeling of big lump in throat, sore throat and severe heartburn. In spite of the fact that I drank at least 10ounces of water with each pill. My question is since I'm allergic to penicillin. What antibiotic is effective for teeth and gum infections???? Thank you.

they are cyst-busters. I was on biaxin for that purpose (along with another med to kill the bugs after they came out of the cyst), but had a reaction to it after several months; so the dr switched me to flagyl and a different antibiotic. It's a fair question why the dr would give you two cyst busters. Sounds like a lot. Good luck with the new job!! Sounds like a good one.

the doctor and I decided that I should try a differnt antibiotic so we switched to the Generic form of Biaxin.... Clarithromycin...... I was on it for 2 months and dropped 18 pounds and 3/4 of my hair..... we pulled out what was in the shower drain alone and you could of made a wig out of it pretty much...... the only other symptoms I had while on this medicine apart from the hair loss is that my hands would swell and night......I had excessive bruising all over.....

I do not have a lyme dx but I am working with my neurologist on it...I am also looking for an LLMD in my area. I am sure that I will have no trouble finding one near Philadelphia. I have a question about antibiotics. Since 2001, I have what I thought was an allergy to Cipro. Took it for an upper respitory infection for 3 days and had terrible problems. The Dr then gave me Levaquin, took for 7 days, with the same side effects.

Saw my LLMD in San Francisco on Friday and he said that my Erlichoisis is cleared but wants me to stay on my meds (Ketek & Cipro) for another 30 days. My testing for lyme is still coming up positive and there were more positive bands and stronger ones than my last test three months ago. He said that the meds I'm currently are on do not treat lyme. After this course of meds, I am switching to Amox & Biaxin to begin treating the lyme. My CD57 shot up from like 20 to 87 though!

I was taking Biaxin 500mg twice a day for a week and then took the rpr two days later. could this affect the results in any way?

It will help in lessening the odd taste. Vit C tablets, over the counter oral mouthwashes will help fight the taste. Increase fibers in the diet. Eat fresh things like apples that are crunchy or rough things like popcorn scrapes the white debris off the tongue. Get your blood sugar tested and the stool tested for worms. Hope these tips help. If symptoms persist consult a dentist. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
