Shirl,
My grandad got me a humidifyer from price-drop tv n that helps at night. Also my bed time routine is strict: Hot drink to moisten the nasal passages, brush teeth, biotene mouthwash, and the i climb into bed and have a good amount of the biotene gel. Its too thick to use in the day but does help at night.
Dishes of water on or near the radiators help as central heating zaps the moisture out.
Unfortunately when i have a cold nothing helps cuz i'm asleep with my mouth wide open and snoring!! Roll Eyes

Hi Shirl

Dave was perscribed pilocarpine (also know as salagen) by our GP in July last year just after his treatment, he has taken it since then 3 times aday since then. We had our hospital check up on 2 Jan, the consultants are over the moon with his progress and said that he has some saliva which they didn't expect.

Hope that is of help to you,

Sue
