Hello,
Yes, most of the antibiotics have metallic taste or bitterness as their prime side effect.
This will go, once you complete the antibiotic course. You can have more of stuff with a strong taste like lemon, ginger, peppermint and raisins. This will help you to counter it.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
