Terbinafine will taste return

Posted , 44 users are following.

Have been on 250mg for 5 weeks for skin infection. Have now lost all sense of taste and miserable as choosing not to eat as dull and boring. I am choosing to stop medication now as nothing is worse than this and i fly on holiday tomorrow. Does anyone know if my taste will return to normal and how long this may take? 😞

    It should return, it usually does, when taking medications and taking in less food we tend to taste the tablets, well at least i do. Keep checking and if after a few weeks it doesnt return, if it doesnt then you may see need to the doctor for a alternative.
