Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,

I have gone through your query, as you have metallic taste in mouth dont worry ot can be due to medication you are taking or nutritional deficiency .

You take one capsule vitamin B complex once daily for 7 days

Do mouthwash chlorhexidine twice daily for one week

Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
