Anyone had issues with loss of taste since taking sulfasalazine or methotrexate?

  Hi @Conkers62

  I have only ever been on methotrexate out of those two meds and I don't remember ever suffering from loss of taste, are you taking both of these? Here's some info for you to have a read through.

  Sulfasalazine | Side-effects, uses, time to work

  Methotrexate | Side-effects, uses, time to work

  I have never been on Sulfa either but worth a look at some of these threads @Conkers62

  Apologies a lot of those threads may well be about covid!

  Hope it settles if it is the medication.
