Dry Mouth?

Post by fenris »

I'm taking Mirapex, and the only real side effect for me is a terribly dry mouth. Since this happens when I'm asleep, sucking on candy or ice chips really isn't an option, and the one saliva substitute that I tried, Biotene, turns to glue in my mouth and doesn't keep it moist anyway.

Does anyone have this problem, and if so, what do you do for it? Everything is dry, mouth, nose, eyes, but the mouth is the only thing I really can't manage.

Thanks,

fenris
