I had a difficulty swallowing for the first few days. Then, went that eased up, my tounge was so sore I couldn't hardly eat anything. Just something touching my tounge hurt like crazy. 4 more days, if I can take it, then I am finished with the 14 day treatment

I have been on the prevpac for 9 days now and it seems to be working. The only problem I'm having is the awful taste in my mouth that WILL NOT GO AWAY. It was ok the first few days but it continue to get worse everyday. If anyone has any advice on what to do about this I would apreciate the help. Overall I am satisfied with this med.
