Avatar f tn ve been taking Metformin 2000mg XR for 3 months and am just now getting side effects like metallic taste and gastro side effects. Same pharmacy, same Sando manufacturer. Is it normal to have side effects after a few months? I never had any side effects initially.
Avatar f tn Any suggestions for the metallic taste in his mouth? Is this the incevik or the other two? You have all been so helpful on his other symptoms- we really appreciate it!
Avatar f tn Give it about a 7-10 days for the side effects to wear off. If you experience more side effects, especially life threatning, you will need to seek medical attention asap. Remember, always read about a medication prior to taking it or ask your physician and/or the pharmacy about the medication.
1749655 tn?1321800934 I now have a very pronounced metallic taste in my mouth which seems also to suffer from dryness. I have been using biotene products for weeks for the dry mouth but this pronounced metallic taste has really come on strong. At times it is difficult to eat or drink. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to minimize this side effect?
Avatar f tn As soon as I took it, I developed a metallic taste in my mouth, my arms started to hurt (second dose it was okay), but I feel like I have dry mouth (not totally but it almost feels like a swollen tongue). I drank some more but it doesn't really help. The odd thing was that it immediately curbed my appetite. The first day I ate nothing after I took the pill and only started feeling hungry when it was wearing off in time for the night pill.

Avatar f tn High dose IV steroids rapidly and dramatically reduce inflammation in the body. MS attacks are periods of acute inflammation affecting the central nervous system. Reducing the inflammation has the effect of calming down acute symptoms. Steroids tend to shorten the duration of an attack but not the ultimate degree to which you will recover They tend to be very effective with symptoms like fatigue and visual disturbance, less effective on problems like numbness.
Avatar m tn my doctor was telling me that there is suppose to be a new treatment coming out for the hep c virus. my question is have anyone heard anything on the side effects of this new med. from what he was saying " it would still carry the same side effects as ribavirin and interferon only + is that the likely hood of it clearing the virus is much greater than interferon and ribavirin alone.
723065 tn?1231078973 I just started the Boceprevir this week also. I do seem to detect a metallic taste or is it my imagination? I'm not 100% convinced I got the Boceprevir but I'm about 80% sure I did. It seems to cause some side effects and I think if it was Placebo I should feel nothing different. I went from a 6 million VL to 1 million VL in 2 weeks. I'm not sure how good that is. I have had my blood tested at week 4, but I do not have the results yet.
Avatar f tn Unfortunately, it is quite possible to have all of these conditions at once. I'm very sorry as this must be quite distressful. She recommended dorzolamide drops to help reduce the cystoid macular edema (CME). This drop can somewhat change your vision. I think you should continue taking these drops and await her reply.
1922425 tn?1322702653 Hi andream5, my husband is finishing week 16 today, so he completed incivek about 4 weeks ago. I would say his side effects since finishing incivek include itching (no rash), fatigue, some weakness/shortness of breath, fatigue, dry mouth/metallic taste in mouth, and insomnia. I think that the symptoms he is experiencing right now (post incivek) are very similar/identical to the side effects he had with previous two treatments. For the itching, he takes Atavan.

Avatar n tn The treatment that you have been prescribed is correct. If you are having any side effects then get the antibiotics changed and even oral antibiotics can be added. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn Also, did anyone else notice a difference in the way carbonated soft drinks taste while on this med? I noticed the same metallic taste to soda when I was on Topomax....really strange!!

Avatar m tn Hi, Rozex contains the active ingredient metronidazole, which is used to treat infections caused by bacteria and protozoa. Possible side effects that are known to be associated with this medicine include skin discomfort (burning or stinging), skin redness, itching, skin irritation, nausea, metallic taste, nausea, or tingling or numbness of the extremities. (ref: http://www.drugs.com/sfx/rozex-side-effects.html) If it persists, have this evaluated further by your doctor for proper management.
Avatar n tn s class are known to give a metallic taste in the mouth. If the metallic taste was not present prior switching from Metroprol to Metoprolol Tartrate then i think we can rule out Zoloft as giving the symptoms. I'm not a doctor but if the symptoms persist try switching back to Metroprol. If it goes away then we have a winner.
Avatar f tn Hello, In my opinion colace laxative that you are taking is responsible for the bitter salty taste in your mouth.Bitter taste and throat irritation are one of the many side effects of colace laxative.Moreover,it causes dehydration and loss of essential nutrients.Saliva helps in washing away the metallic taste. I feel that you should talk to your doctor regarding decreasing the dose of colace or shifting to some other alternative.
Avatar f tn I have had a non stop metallic taste in my mouth for several weeks. It's only on one side of my mouth and I have already had part of brain tumor removed on that same side several years ago. Never had this symptom before.
Avatar n tn Hi, How is your Mom? The metallic taste may be caused by dysgeusia, a distortion of the sense of taste, which may be a side effect of chemotherapy and other medications she may be taking. Some medications or a change of her current medicines may be prescribed by her doctor to help provide relief. Hope this helps. Take care and do keep us posted.
