Antibiotics cause bad breath?

Question

I have been taking antibiotics to help with my wisdom teeth removal healing. I feel a really bad taste in my mouth and bad breath. Is the antibiotics causing this?

Answer 1

Possible! Some food debris in the mouth causes bad breath. For as long as the antibiotic is the one causing your bad breath there's no such thing to worry about because you can counteract that by brushing and gargling for every time the odor comes out. It would only become a problem if it comes form your internal because it is harder to manange. :)
