Lost my taste after using terbinafine for 5 weeks. Losing weight because I do not like the taste or texture of food or drink. Has lasted for two weeks now.
Is there something I can take to help me get my taste back quicker ?

Try some probiotics and eating yogurt a couple of time per day. I had something similar happen after taking Biaxin and I tasted hot pepper for a couple of months after treatment. My pharmacist said to eat yogurt, you might mention this to your pharmacist and see if they know of something else that will help or if they think you should contact your doctor.
