I have a friend that took z-pack for the flu around two years ago. Lost his sense of taste & smell also. He has been to several Drs. they can't find anything wrong. We recently met another man that also took this drug & lost his taste & smell shortly after. Was just looking to see if anyone else has had this side effect. And to see if they ever found a cure.

Hi, Just wondering if your problem has gone away and what course of action you have taken? I too, suffer from loss of taste and also hearing trouble- in one ear!!! Hope you are well.
