OK so a lot of you will know that yucky metalic taste you get in your mouth when you get pregnant - well I have it as a result of the newest lot of drugs my dr has put me on (i'm definatly NOT pregnant, something has to be done for that to happen).

I spoke to the pharmist when I went in to get Josh's bum cream and she said that it is quite normal to have as a result of taking them, but didn't offer anything to get rid of the taste, just told me to continue to take them and if it gets really bad to see my dr again (I don't want to do that just yet).

So anyone have any great ideas on how to get rid of this taste?? as its drinving me nuts, and starting to have an affect on the stuff I am eating and drinking - who knew orange juice could be so gross and I have to drink that for my iron.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

What a pain that sounds Becks. What about chewing gum or some strong mints?? I've tried those Listerine breath tabs (I think that's what they're called) & they're pretty strong so might be worth a try...

I know for one pill I was given I was told fresh orange juice but sounds like you have tried that. Mints did work for a bit but then it wore off and I had a minty bad taste in my mouth. An apple maybe, they are meant to clense the palate
