Brief Answer:
Addition of antibiotic will help.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,
I understand your concern.
You seem to have Allergic rhinosinusitis .
This can contribute to symptoms like altered taste sensation.
Since you have not responded to the symptomatic treatment,I advise you to take an antibiotic like Amoxiclav 625 mg twice a day for 5 days.
This should be supplemented with Tab Sinarest once a day at bedtime.
Please note these drugs have to be taken in consultation with your primary physician.
Rhinosinusitis can make the tongue dry.
The above drug regimen will help to control your symptoms in most cases.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
