Hello again.
Thanks for the kind words, hope you and your family have no problems with the pandemic too.
I have read your new query.
Loss or affected sense of taste and smell may be caused by sinusitis, viral infections, adverse effects of drugs, etc.
Burning mouth syndrome does not cause typically a loss of smell.
The medications that you mentioned help as nerve supplements and should improve your symptoms if the problem arises from damaged nerves.
If any drugs suspected that may cause such issues, it should be stopped.
Symptoms may improve with the local use of capsaicin, clonazepam.
Before continuing with the medications, you should get evaluated by an Oral Medicine (Maxillofacial) specialist for a correct diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
