i have diabetes, i used to get a dry mouth when i was taking tablets. check your sugar levels as this is normally a sign of dehydration due to high blood sugar.Otherwise it could just be a side effect of the tablets

I have been a diabetic for 8 years and I have never experienced that. Which doesn't mean it isn't part of it. I have found that everyone's body makeup is different and we have different symptons. If in doubt about what it is, call your doctor.

I also get dry mouth. I have been on Metformin 500gm twice a day for just 1 month. I wake up with a bad taste in my mouth.
I asked my doc about it. He said it has something to do with the med. I also been getting alot of headaches. My doc said to give it sometime. I will go away. Good luck.

never heard the salt taste, but the dry mouth is a symptom
maybe you are low on sodium intake
see your doctor
