Anosmia (loss of smell) could Ribavirin have something to do with this??

The reason I'm asking is I have lost my sense of smell in the last few months. I had a bad cold a few weeks

prior to treatment in June and it never returned. Just wondering if anyone here has heard of this?

My ENT has me on steroids for 2 weeks but I can't help thinking maybe the ribavirin might have something to with it....

it all happened around the same time.

Anyway...just curious
