H,

Metallic taste may be due to gum bleeding or acid reflux or sinusitis or sinusitis with post nasal drip or due to iron tablets consumption, etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use tablet Pantoprazole before breakfast for one week.

Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Get it done oral cavity examination. If symptoms not improved please consult your ENT/physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
