Ive read a lot about people having bad breath when in ketosis, I take it it doesnt happen to everyone and hopefully doesnt last long but anyone got any suggestions whats safest to take to combat it if you do get it?

Nope, it doesn't pass but you do get used to it. According to my OH I was much more aware of it than he ever was, unless you have to have lots of interaction with people where you are likely to be literally nose-to-nose it's not a problem.

I clean my teeth if I'm at home when it gets too much. I also chew the odd parsley or mint leaf.
