Amox K Clav 875 Mlg
UpdatedI was prescribed this huge pill after telling doc I had a problem swallowing even water! Also she found a huge cancer sore the size of of a silver dollar on the right size of my throat at the ear! I suffered a swollen tongue with loss of taste for food and now since I stopped taking them my tongue is reducing swelling but I have not taste! Everything I eat or drink tastes like salt and burns my tongue. I cannot eat basically but I have to eat turkey tastes like salt, beef tastes like salt and it burns. Crazy! What the hell is going on? Im miserable!

Hello, Maureen! How are you doing?
Did you mean a canker sore?
If so, that can be a typical occurrence with them, if you view the details provided by the NIH, they tend to cause changes in our perceptions of taste. If your tongue is burning, that means that you likely still have some and it will take time for them to heal and for things to return to normal.
Are you on any other medications? Do you know what caused the canker sores, or do you always get them?
maureen im glad you quit taking them, sounds like a steven johnsons reaction to the med. this is a really bad reaction. have you notified your doc. you may have a metalic taste in your mouth where the ulcers were, and the salty taste may be because the area is still a little raw. try a bland diet for a while and your doc may recomend a swish and swallow of maalox to help coat your mouth. hope this helps.
