Medical management of taste and smell disorders.
Chemosensory dysfunction is most often secondary to one of only a few causes: nasal/sinus disease, viral infection, toxic chemical exposure, head trauma, as well as medication-related and idiopathic conditions. Medication-related disorders are corrected by discontinuance of the causative medicine. Our experiences have also shown that only dysfunctions of smell caused by disorders of the nose and/or sinuses are amendable to therapy.
