Best solution for saliva?

[Danijela]

This is becoming a problem. Patches? Something else? D

Patches, Atropine drops, meds with side effects of dry mouth- ie- Amitryptoline.
Best of luck.

Thanks Liz. Good to see you here. D

My Neuro prescribed me the drug Glycopyrrolate to help me with drooling.
I use it every now and then when drooling becomes unmanageable.

Hope this helps.

I've heard of some who swear by papaya juice or tablets.

Thanks Momap53 for the hint. I did not know papaya juice could be used to treat excess salivation. I'll tell my CALS to buy me some at the grocery store to try it and see if it works.

Thank you, will make notes of all suggestions. Different things seem to work differently for PALS. D

I take Amitriptyline and have also used papaya tablets. A marked decrease in drooling since being on the Amitriptyline. I take 50mg around 6:00 PM, any later and I feel very tired upon waking the next day.
Good luck
