Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Ageusia:

1.	ZincIBA 07/01/1980 - "The results of this study show that uremic hypogeusia improved in association with zinc supplementation and elevation of plasma zinc concentration." 12/01/2004 - "CONCLUSION: The results of the present study indicated that zinc deficiency is a predominant factor underlying hypogeusia even when zinc concentrations are within normal ranges in the serum and show that clinically, ACE ratio may be a more sensitive indicator of the zinc nutritional status than measuring zinc concentration in the serum." 07/01/1988 - "Linkage of hypogeusia to zinc deficiency has been suggested" 01/01/1987 - "These results suggest that zinc-deficiency may induce hypogeusia and decrease the ability to transform a monoamine precursor to monoamine in the gustatory cells, albeit the monoamine precursor uptake ability is not affected." 12/01/1983 - "Improvement of uremic neuropathy and hypogeusia by dialysate zinc supplementation: a double-blind study."
