title: [Ageusia as the aftereffect of oxyfedrine use].
abstract: Out of oxyfedrine++ side effects known up to the present (mild agitation, stupor, heat sensation, pains in the epigastrium++, skin allergy) 24 cases of ageusia appearing usually after 4 weeks of treatment with oxyfedrine++ were presented. Disturbances of taste are found to be unpleasant for patients, and result in remarkable exacerbation of their general feeling. The complaints subside completely after finishing treatment, and the time of taste disorder withdrawal is prolonged according to the time of oxyfedrine++ treatment.
