Bad taste after Docetaxel

Hi

I'm just 'bumping' your post back to the top of the discussion list as I can see that you haven't had any replies yet.

You could also post this question in the main breast cancer group where I'm sure you'll get a reply.

Hi I had the same. I found sucking sugar free sweets from Aldi. Blackcurrant, lemon and cola. Plus Biotene mouth was was excellent. Not a nice texture but it soothed my mouth. The taste for food is something I had to put up with. It went back to normal after about a week.

Hi latchbrook

i have had 6 cycles of Docetaxel and I found the following helpful

1- pineapple juice

2- gargles with saline water

3- sucking ice cubes

4- using benzydamine mouth wash 

5- using minty chewing gums 

I hope this helps 

Thanks for this. I’m going onto this....
