How is anosmia treated?

In most cases, treating the underlying condition can help restore your sense of smell. For example, if you have sinusitis, then antibiotics can help clear up the infection. If certain medications are affecting your sense of smell, then switching meds may help ease your anosmia symptoms. If you have nasal polyps or another type of blockage, surgery may be necessary. Your healthcare provider can help determine any underlying conditions and recommend appropriate treatment.
