Underlying Problem Treatments
Certain causes of dysgeusia like the common cold or pregnancy can resolve on their own without the need for treatments. When your changes in taste are caused by smoking, then the only option is to stop smoking. For drug-induced dysgeusia, it is important to consult your healthcare provider and change the prescription as soon as possible. Other treatments are needed to dal with the underlying cause of the condition. Allergies would be controlled with steroids or antihistamines. Constipation can be improved with stool softeners and diet. While health issues like Alzheimer’s disease are not curable, you can still improve the taste to deal with nutrition and appetite. [9]
