Could my sudden loss of smell after having a cold and mild fever be a symptom of the illness, or is it a side effect of taking Citrizen and Crocin?

Asked by Female, 35 · 6 days ago

This is a very common symptom of viral respiratory infections, like a cold, rather than a side effect of your medications. The infection causes temporary inflammation in your nasal pathways, which blocks your sense of smell. Neither Citrizen (cetirizine) nor Crocin (paracetamol) is known to cause this side effect. As your body recovers from the illness, your sense of smell should gradually return. Rest well, stay hydrated, and if your symptoms do not improve within a couple of weeks, please consult a doctor for a check-up.
