dry mouth - salagen or bethanachol

Posted by Sammybabe on May 19, 2005, at 21:31:27

Hi - I'm on nardil AND nortriptyline, which make my mouth incredibly dry.

I used salagen for a while, but it gave me hot flashes which were embarrassing.

I'm starting behanachol -- has it worked well for anyone's dry mouth? Does it also give hot flashes? I know it's supposed to help with urinary retention (good thing!).

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

i've just started taking risperdal and its giving me dry mouth as well as a burning like sensation. i never knew there was something to take to create more saliva; any info on these meds or others like it would be great to know about.
