constant sweet taste in mouth

Guest · Guest

I too have had this the only change I can remember doing is taking prilosec for an extended time. If you used an antacid this may be where it comes from.

I too have had a sweet taste in my mouth for the last week or so. It is there constantly, there are no diabetes in my family, I am not over weight and I get enough exercise chaseing my four year old around. I am really starting to get worried.

Just came across this - I get a sweet taste for around a week when I'm ovulating. I haven't found any evidence as to why but it happens every month!

Check with the owner of your workplace. In many cases this time of the year, the condensation drain pipe gets stagnant, smells bad, and the plumbers answer is to put some antifreeze in the drainpipe. When your A/C first comes on, there is suction from that drain pipe, and the antifreeze will make your mouth water, taste sweet, and even make you nauseous. It is difficult to get rid of the taste, but try to stay away from the fumes of it. Just a suggestion. CV

I also have recently had a sweet taste in my mouth for a few weeks now and it is very annoying. I would brush my teeth after meals hoping that that would make it go away, but an hour or less later it was back. After doing some research on my own, I believe I have Candida Albicans, which is an overgrowth of the harmful bacteria that is present in all our bodies. Apparently the friendly bacteria we have help metabolize sugar and when we do something that kills them off like taking antibiotics or, as in my case, something as simple as gargling twice a day with an antiseptic mouthwash to clear up a gum infection, we cause havoc and result in a sweet taste in the mouth and maybe other symptoms like a coated tongue or white patches in the mouth. I've decided to start by taking acidophilus pills to replenish the good bacteria and avoid eating sugary foods to starve the Candida which thrives on sugar. Also, I've learned that when your body's ph balance is out of wack, the good bacteria can't thrive, so it's important to maintain your bodies proper ph balance.

Has anyone with the sweet taste ever received a diagnois of the sweet taste in their mouths?

I have had a sweet taste since 01/07. I have been through tons of testing and no answers. I recently had my gallbladder removed but still have taste. Taste is not a typical gallbladder symptom. I was hoping I wasn't typical. It has been 4 weeks since my surgery.

I recently saw a gastro specialist at U Of M. Mystery to him also.

Please help.

I also have that sweet taste in my mouth and it doesn't go away. I feel like puking and so i can get rid of the taste. It's annoying, i don't have the appetite to eat! The only reason i eat is because i can hear my tummy gurgling and so that's a sign that i am producing lots of acid in my tummy. But it sucks to feel this taste. I do not get this often, but when i do, i feel like i wanna puke, though the "nauseated" feeling is not really there.
