I got that really strongly at first with Biaxin, but it went away completely after a few weeks or maybe a couple months. Hang in there =)

I have it everyday and posted a question on here and I do not take biaxin?
I am on omnicef but I noticed that it comes after my supplements. I have it ruled down to the COQCF or the magnesium..one of them is causing me to have a constant metal mouth.
Now all i do it brush my teeth all day and use biotene trying to get rid of it??

I also have a metallic taste in my mouth and am on no meds. Sometimes I feel like I'm tasting the amalgams in my mouth...

I always wondered if other people could smell it. Can they?

Annier,
Omnicef is a Ceftrioxone related to Biaxin. May be that is why you are getting the metallic taste?
Ceftin is 1st generation, Biaxin is 2nd generation and Omnicef is 3rd.
