People should pay attention to bitter mouth and bleeding gums. If you have bitter taste for a long time or often, you should go to the hospital in time to find out the reason.

There is a well-known drug-vitamin C tablets, which is effective for bitter taste caused by any reason. The usage of vitamins is 2~3 tablets three times a day, and put them under the tongue. Generally speaking, mild bitterness can disappear as long as you take medicine for 2~3 times. Even with severe bitterness, continuous medication for 3-4 days can solve the problem. Taking vitamin c has no side effects. Of course, the use of vitamin C tablets to treat bitter taste is only an emergency method, which treats the symptoms rather than the root cause. Bitter taste is only a manifestation of various diseases or bad life factors, not an independent disease. Therefore, the best way to prevent and treat bitter mouth disease is to eradicate the primary disease and get rid of bad habits in life, such as smoking and drinking, and pay attention to oral hygiene.
