Treatment Options

A health care professional will need to determine the cause of dysgeusia before advising how to manage the condition. Many treatment options are available.

For those with gastric reflux and bad bacteria in their mouth, dietary modifications and medications may be advised. With impaired taste that's a result of a vitamin or mineral deficiency, supplements are needed. Switching medications might also aid recovery if a certain drug was responsible for dysgeusia, and underlying medical conditions, such as diabetes, would need to be managed accordingly.2‘Dysgeusia.’ ENT Health, 26 Jan. 2021, www.enthealth.org/conditions/dysgeusia/
