klacid antibiotic
Hi, I would like to know if Klacid Antibiotics can have a side effect such as a metal taste in my mouth. I used this medication for the flu. I finished the 5day course yesterday, but I have this terrible metal taste in my mouth and have no appetite all of a sudden. My health is otherwise fine. Could it be something else?

Hi CB
Klacid can cause abnormal taste in the mouth. One also sometimes get this due to a post nasal drip. Try gargling with mouth wash or salt water (1/2 teaspoon in 1 cup of water).
