Should I worry if I have a brown tongue after Octeangin?

Brown tongue after using the drug Octeangin. 24h after the last tablet still unchanged. There is not a word about it in the leaflet. Should I worry? And will it pass?

Indeed, discoloration of the tongue is not listed as a known side effect of the drug Octeangin, so it is difficult to answer whether it will pass and whether it can be dangerous in some way. If the discoloration does not pass and you are concerned, I suggest contacting a doctor for a direct examination (Octeangin is a prescription drug). Identified, possible side effects of Octeangin are irritation of the oral mucosa and stomach, such as taste disturbances, dry mouth, dyspepsia, nausea or abdominal pain and allergic reactions. This does not mean that other side effects (not described in the leaflet) cannot occur. I encourage you to report such an adverse reaction: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane

I took octeangin for almost two weeks, brown tongue the same, the question was whether the antibiotic was the toxins or just octeangin, the family doctor told me to stop taking octeangin

Do@Pepe:
Glimbax does not cause these types of changes in the mouth. This is one of the side effects of Octeangin, usually goes away after a few days after the end of the treatment.

It's the same for me... in the treatment of angina. It looks terrible. The only thing that worries me is the fact that it's been a week since the end of the treatment and the tongue is still not perfect, and I have the impression that brownish-black tartar has settled on my teeth. I hope it goes down. I'll just add that I rinsed my mouth with Glimbax, maybe it's the culprit?

I'm struggling with this problem too. Tell me, did you get over it? And after how long?

I've also been taking this medication for a few days now and I have a brown tongue and numbness. There is some coffee extract. Maybe it's discoloring.

I also have brown spots after taking this medication with strep throat.

jula (Anonymous, 31.183.152.) 10 months ago

I had that too. I used the tongue scraper a few times and washed my tongue with a toothbrush and after two or three days it was gone

Today the doctor prescribed me this disgusting drug cteangin I lost almost 30 zł and after the first tablet I experienced terrible bitterness in the mouth and I know that I will not take it again!!! There are so many proven and effective drugs that you should eliminate such bubbles from the market and simply do not buy them. I heartily advise against money thrown down the drain!!!

What treatment is implemented for a raid on the tongue after octeangin ?

Lusi (Anonymous, 83.4.57.) 19 months ago

I used Octeangin for 5 days and also from the second day of use I had a brown tongue, as if "burned out" from decontamination and taste disturbances appeared. I am the second day without this drug, but the taste has not yet returned ... although it seems to me that it is a little better :( For my viral pharyngitis, Octeangin unfortunately did not work.

sandra p (Anonymous, 89.64.102.) 19 months ago

I have the same thing. In addition, the tongue is numb.. Strange.

Bez covidu (Anonymous, 178.43.251.) 1 year ago

I also have such a dinner. I do not take other medications currently, the tongue on the 2nd day became brownish. I will, of course, report this to the doctor.
