Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.


Thanks for your query . The metallic taste you mention in query is most probably occur due to intake of vitamin D as one of the side effect of it .

I would suggest you to stop taking vitamin D supplement immediately . Instead take natural diet rich in vitamin D . You can take vitamin D naturally by exposing yourself to sun for some time (best way to get vitamin D) , taking 2 glasses of milk , mushroom and nuts .

It will take few days for metallic taste to go away . Till then start suck on peppermint candy or place cardamom or clove in your mouth.

If condition doesn't get better in a week then consult doctor for proper evaluation and to find out exact cause .


Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get We Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
