Constant Bad Taste In Mouth Overproduction Of Phlegm

I have Gerd. Have been on tecta for the last four years. No problems until I started taking sertraline in April 2015. Since then I have had acid reflex symptoms, constantly spitting out phlegm and very very bad taste in mouth. Chronic. 40 mg of tecta once a day. 100 mg of sertraline once a day. Last endoscopy was in Oct. 2015, told to come back in 3 years. I am at my wits end. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you

Hello Carolyn! How are you?

Have you considered speaking to your doctor about switching off the Sertraline to see if things improve? There are other similar medications you can try.

Its other typical side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include headache, dry mouth, weight gain and dizziness.
