Noticed Sores On Tongue After Taking Cipralex

I have just started taking the anti-depressant Cipralex (4 days) and am noticing sores on my tongue and on the inside of my cheeks (something I never get). Is this related to the drug or is it an allergy/sensitivity to something else I could have eaten?

I have gone through your query, as you have soreness on tongue agter taking cipralex yes it happens in some patients due to drug.

Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day

Do one capsule Vitamin B complex once daily for one week

Maintain cleaning of tongue using tongue cleaner .
