Brief Answer: Start with Citrus Fruits and plenty of water Detailed Answer: Hello, Since you recently suffered from fever, the metallic taste is most likely secondary to recent infection. It most likely would resolve in a few days. You should take plenty of water and even start with citric fruits; it would resolve soon. I do not think this is related to neosporin. Hope this will help you Regards Dr. Dipti Singh
