A word on antivirals! The metallic mouth taste is beyond #yuck And it doesn't matter if you have lost your sense of taste either. It's a known side effect of Paxlovid called 'dysgeusia'. About 5.6% experience it. I'm sure it's higher than that, but surprised it's tolerated to the end of the 5 day course. But, guess I have no choice. Crumbs!
