IntroductionBurning mouth syndrome (BMS) is characterized by an intraoral burning sensation for which no medical or dental cause can be found. Sporadic evidence suggests that drug induced conditions may evoke BMS. Intriguingly, we observed a patient who developed BMS after induction of citalopram.Objectives & aimsA case report of patient with BMS from our psychiatric ward will be presented here, followed by a literature review on drugs induced BMS.MethodsBased on a recent literature search, we present a first case report of BMS that was apparently induced in patient shortly after beginning of citalopram. We performed a systematic search through PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane's Library to find more cases of psychotropic induced BMS.ResultsMs. A. was a 72-year old woman meeting DSM-IV diagnostic criteria for melancholic depression, who was observed in a clinical setting. We started citalopram 10 mg. 1dd1, with 10 mg. 1dd1 increase over 7 days to 20 mg, 1dd1. The following day, she displayed a persistent burning painful sensation in the mouth. Other than BMS oropharyngological syndromes were excluded after consultation with qualified medical specialists. Citalopram therapy was discontinued, and nortrilen treatment was initiated. BMS symptoms resolved over four days. Twelve case reports have linked BMS to the use antidepressants and anxiolytics.ConclusionContrasting the statement that no medical cause can be found for BMS, we found that psychotropics may evoke the syndrome. Compared to other psychotropic drugs, antidepressant medication has the strongest association with BMS.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Burning Mouth

Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a relatively common chronic disease of unclear etiopathogenesis. It is defined as a distinctive nosological entity that includes all forms of burning sensation in the mouth, including stinging sensation or pain, in association with an oral mucosa that appears clinically normal, in the absence of local or systemic diseases. It was hypothesized that psychological factors could influence its appearance, but also physiological factors, with some authors suggesting a neuropathic etiology. Regarding the treatment of BMS, benefits were found in individual or group psychotherapy, as well as in psychopharmacological interventions, however its current therapeutic approach is not completely satisfactory. In this paper we describe two cases of BMS and discuss the possible etiopathogenesis and current therapeutic approaches.
