Question: I've had a bad taste in my mouth for the last few days, mainly from late afternoon on. what could be causing this? It seems that it started about a week ago when I ate a lot of sweets.

add Domperidone 30mg along with protonix.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
Bad taste in mouth can be due to oral infection or throat infection or it can also be due to Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).
Eating lots of sweet can cause GERD. I would advise that you should add Domperidone 30mg along with protonix that you are taking. This will help in relieving your symptoms.
If the symptoms persists, get yourself clinically examined and investigated by your doctor.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
