MedHelp Member's Question

Can SSRI effect how food tastes?

by duckandcover, Jul 12, 2008 10:06AM

Since I started my Zoloft it seems that food (but especially liquids) have a slightly metallic taste. Is this just me? I haven't seen it as a side effect anywhere.

It did the same thing with me. I wasn't on zoloft but I was on Buspar and the taste was awful. It never went away with me until I quit the medication. Then it was about 3 weeks later when it went away completely.

Ughh... that stinks but at least it will keep me on my diet I suppose. My apetite disappeared when I started the Zoloft.
