What could cause a salty taste in one's mouth and and urine that smells like ammonia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely dehydration.: A urine that smells like ammonia is likely due to dehydration since it is concentrated. A salty taste in the mouth is likely due to the same thing as there is probably not enough water to dilute the sodium.
