I was prescribed Qysmia for weight loss about 5 months ago. I went in for a dental visit yesterday and was disturbed to find out Ive had bone loss and now have moderate peridontal disease where previously (6 months ago) had an excellent exam. I read that anti-seizure medications can cause peridontial disease, could this prescription be the culprit? I do notice my mouth is dry quite often.
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The anti-epileptic Chat Doctor.  The periodontal disease could be because of the deposits over the teeth. If you are diabetic then the chances of periodontal diseases are high. Consult an oral physician to rule out this thing and get a complete blood investigation done. For the gum infection, you can get your teeth cleaned and maintain the oral hygiene after that. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
