Can Bumps On My Tongue And Blisters In My Mouth And Throat Be Related To Weight Loss Medicines?
i have recently started taking phentermine and topamax for weight loss. My mouth has been very dry and i have been drinking a large amount of water. Today I have noted bumps on my tongue and blisters in my mouth and throat. It is very painful. Could this be related to these medications?
Thanks for your question,phentermine and topamax can cause dry mouth or an unpleasant taste in your mouth.these are mild side effects do not need treatment. Blisters in mouth due to dyrness of mouth or it could be vitamin deficiancy.if these symptoms present continuosly then you need to see your physician please continue drinking a lot of water and take multi vitamin tablets.
