I was prescribed Biaxin for a sinus infection and I was only able to take it for 3 days (out of a 10 day prescription) because of the ungodly taste it left in my mouth. I couldn't sleep at night because the taste of hot garbage in my mouth would wake me up. I tried chugging water, gargling with Listerine - NOTHING helped. It was so disgusting! I will NEVER take this nasty med again!

I am back once again and taking Yasmin is not cutting it. I am suffering from high blood pressure which I had never had, severe migraine headaches, vomiting, a lot of nausea, stomach pains, mental depression, extreme fatigue, I am always thirsty no matter how many bottle of waters I go through Iam still thirsty. I have a very bad taste in my mouth and I find myself brushing my teeth and chewing gum numerous times during the day. At times I experience dizziness, the foods I love I now hate, and I told my doctor all these symptoms and the only thing she told me was this is normal. what kind of crap is this and why is this product still on the market.

The most TERRIBLE taste in my mouth the morning after use. It was like I had chewed a handful of tylenol. Will never take again!

I have experienced the coughing side effect and have found chewing gum helps it subside, better than cough drops, or drinking or eating something.

I wondered if anyone had experienced any kind of anorexic effect with this drug. My appetite has changed dramatically (I'm not complaining) in that it's much less, I'm not compelled to eat and when I do eat, my capacity is much, much less. Like I said, I'm not complaining, but it would be interesting to know if Lisinopril is the cause.

metallic taste in the mouth which has turned into a salty taste.
I feel as if I have salt water in my teeth, gums and saliva and lips. I cannot maintain a normal conversation without chewing gum and water to keep my mouth moist, and vaseline to keep myself from licking my lips that are quickly becoming chapped. I have lost the ability to taste most food.
Everything just tastes like salt.
It is unbearable

Extreme dry mouth, taste perversion, leg and neck pain, exteme tiredness, general muscle pain. My mouth is so dry that in the morning, if I try to swallow without drinking something first, my throat sticks together and I have difficulty breathing. My ability to taste has decreased and I have a tin-like taste in my mouth all the time. I brush my teeth and use mouthwash five or six times a day, am always chewing gum to try to get rid of the taste and the dryness, but nothing works. I can't sleep at night because of the joint and muscle pain and am always exhausted. Am going to the doctor today and having her take me off of this medication.
