Hello,
Some types of medications can cause changes in taste or loss of taste. Also, some medications used to stabilize blood pressure can cause changes in taste. Please write to me which medications are you using and I can tell you which is causing the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
